V5.5

[Intro] Yeah... Word of the Lord in a broken land... 808s hit... Let's go... [Verse 1] Called as a young man, fire in his bones, God said, "Speak truth," though he'd stand alone. Kings wouldn't listen, people turned away, Chasing false gods every single day. Tears on his face, burden in his chest, Preaching repentance, trying his best. Mocked and rejected, thrown into a pit, Still he kept speaking, wouldn't ever quit. Temple in the city, but the hearts were cold, Trading God's glory for silver and gold. Warning after warning, but they wouldn't hear, Babylon was coming and the judgment was near. [Pre-Chorus] Sirens in the distance, clouds in the sky, Jerusalem trembling as the armies ride by. But the Lord kept calling, "Turn back to Me," Mercy was waiting if they only could see. [Chorus] Written on the heart, not stone anymore, Grace gonna open up a brand-new door. Even through the exile, even through the pain, God's gonna restore what was broken again. Judgment came down, but His love stayed true, Every promise spoken, He'll carry it through. From the ashes of the city, hear the future start, New Covenant living—written on the heart. [Verse 2] Babylon rolled in, walls came down, Smoke filled the sky all over the town. Temple was burning, then the people all knew Everything Jeremiah said had now come true. Yet in the darkness, hope still remained, God wasn't finished, His plan hadn't changed. "I know the future, I know what's ahead, I'm bringing My people back," the Lord said. Not by their power, not by their might, But by His mercy and covenant light. One day forgiveness would freely flow, Seeds of redemption beginning to grow. [Bridge] Weeping prophet crying through the night, Holding on to God when nothing felt right. Pointing to a Savior yet to be revealed, A greater covenant forever sealed. [Chorus] Written on the heart, not stone anymore, Grace gonna open up a brand-new door. Even through the exile, even through the pain, God's gonna restore what was broken again. Judgment came down, but His love stayed true, Every promise spoken, He'll carry it through. From the ashes of the city, hear the future start, New Covenant living—written on the heart. [Outro] Jeremiah cried, but the story ain't done, The promise kept moving till the coming Son. From judgment to mercy, from the dark to the light, God writes His law on His people's hearts tonight. Yeah... Jeremiah... From the pit to the promise... From the exile to the King... Written on the heart.
