Hail the Seven Plagues

Intro

Oh-oh, whoa-oh, yeah (come on)

Guitar cuts, drum hits, breathe in—let it go

Verse

We built our towers higher than our prayers

Turned our hands to gold, left the widow there

Silent alleys holding secret guilt and shame

But the sky remembers every name

Smoke on the horizon, a trumpet in the wind

Not to celebrate the fall, but to call us home again

The earth grows quiet under righteous flame

This is not the end of hate—this is the end of blame

Pre-chorus

Turn your face, turn your face, to the only light

Drop your pride, drop your pride, let mercy write

(Oh) Kneel before the Lamb, (yeah) open up your hands

He’s the refuge and the judge, the beginning and the plan

Chorus

Hail the seven plagues—hail the righteous call

Hail the seven plagues—tearing down the wall

Hail the seven plagues—bring the lost recall

Hail the seven plagues—God is over all

Hallelujah, hallelujah, amen (amen), yeah

Hallelujah, hallelujah, amen (amen), yeah

Verse

Candles in the windows, a cry across the street

Children singing names that we used to keep

The cup is poured, the bowl goes round, mercy meets the pain

Not to punish pleasure, but to wash away the stain

We stood with fancy banners, tangled in our schemes

Found the kingdom waiting where we left our dreams

Now the thunder shapes the promise we once knew

If we open up, He’ll make us new

Pre-chorus

Lay down your weapons made of doubt and fear

Raise up a song so the heavens hear

(Oh) Let the Lamb be the truth, (oh) let the hammer fall

We’ll stand redeemed, we’ll stand restored, we’ll stand with God

Chorus

Hail the seven plagues—hail the righteous call

Hail the seven plagues—tearing down the wall

Hail the seven plagues—bring the lost recall

Hail the seven plagues—God is over all

Hallelujah, hallelujah, amen (amen), yeah

Hallelujah, hallelujah, amen (amen), yeah

Bridge

This is not triumph for the proud, it’s a trumpet for the meek

Taste the bitter then the sweet, feel the strong become the weak

He’ll sift the wheat, He’ll mend the wound, He’ll write your name again

In the ashes we will find Him, in the rubble we will bend

Shout it out—(shout it out), call His name—(call His name)

Run to grace—(run to grace), break the chains—(break the chains)

Chorus

Hail the seven plagues—hail the righteous call

Hail the seven plagues—tearing down the wall

Hail the seven plagues—bring the lost recall

Hail the seven plagues—God is over all

Hallelujah, hallelujah, amen (amen), yeah

Hallelujah, hallelujah, amen (amen), yeah

Outro

Oh—oh—oh, oh (come home)

Hail, hail, hail the call (hail)

Amen—amen—amen (amen)

Guitar rings out, let mercy fall
