		Haggai 1
	1.	This is the time for building the temple of the
		Lord
		That all the local churches may full be
		restored.
		'Tis not the time for our house while God's
		house lieth waste-
		O brothers, for God's building, rise up, make
		haste!
		Be strong, be strong, God's dwelling place
		to build!
		The Lord of hosts is with us, with His glory
		'twill be filled!
		Be strong, be strong, and work in one
		accord,
		That all the nations may behold the temple
		of the Lord.
	2.	O hear, the Lord is speaking: Consider now
		your ways,
		Ye sow and bring in little, for lacking is My
		praise.
		Go up into the mountain, material to provide,
		And build My house that I may be glorified.
	3.	Ye who are priests, ye remnant of Christians
		now obey-
		The Lord Himself is with us, whatever men
		may say,
		With spirits stirred and burning, now let us
		come to work; May none his part with others
		in building shirk.
	4.	I'll fill this house with glory, the Lord of hosts
		has said,
		And the desire of nations will be exhibited.
		Its glory will be greater than all that's gone
		before,
		And we will share this glory forevermore.
