[male

Yeah.
Sometimes
the
path
gets
quiet.
When
you're
carrying
the
weight
alone.
But
look
ahead,
Haggai.
Listen
close.
The
shadows
stretch
across
the
empty
room,
I’
m
waiting
for
a
light
to
pierce
the
gloom.
I
count
the
hours,
I
count
the
silent
days,
Searching
for
a
sign
amidst
the
maze.
The
ones
I
called
have
turned
their
heads
away,
Just
watching
from
the
sidelines
as
I
pray.
It’
s
cold
out
here
when
nobody
understands,
And
all
I
have
is
what
is
in
my
hands.
Oh,
Haggai,
keep
your
eyes
upon
the
dawn,
Even
when
the
strength
is
nearly
gone.
When
the
silence
is
the
only
friend
you
know,
That’
s
the
moment
that
your
spirit
starts
to
grow.
Stand
tall,
let
the
doubt
just
fade
to
gray,
There
is
a
brand
new
rhythm
on
the
way.
Yeah,
you’
re
rising,
rising
on
your
own,
A
foundation
made
of
solid,
steady
stone.
I
walked
the
valley
through
the
driving
rain,
I
learned
the
lessons
hidden
in
the
pain.
They
didn't
reach
out
when
the
storm
was
loud,
They
lost
their
voices
in
the
heavy
cloud.
But
I
don't
need
a
hand
to
hold
my
own,
I’
ve
found
a
power
that
I’
ve
never
known.
It’
s
in
the
struggle
where
the
gold
is
refined,
Leaving
all
the
bitter
echoes
far
behind.
Oh,
Haggai,
keep
your
eyes
upon
the
dawn,
Even
when
the
strength
is
nearly
gone.
When
the
silence
is
the
only
friend
you
know,
That’
s
the
moment
that
your
spirit
starts
to
grow.
Stand
tall,
let
the
doubt
just
fade
to
gray,
There
is
a
brand
new
rhythm
on
the
way.
Yeah,
you’
re
rising,
rising
on
your
own,
A
foundation
made
of
solid,
steady
stone.
It’
s
a
test
of
the
soul,
it’
s
a
fire
in
the
night,
Turning
the
darkness
to
a
beautiful
light.
No
one
helped
me
climb,
no
one
gave
the
key,
But
the
person
looking
back
is
finally
free.
Yeah,
finally
free.
So
let
them
wonder
how
you
made
it
through,
It
was
the
fire
burning
deep
in
you.
Don't
look
for
validation
in
the
crowd,
Keep
your
vision
clear
and
keep
your
heart
proud.
Because
the
journey
isn't
measured
by
the
aid,
But
by
the
heavy
price
that
you
have
paid.
And
you’
ve
paid
it
all,
Haggai,
you’
re
in
the
light,
Moving
forward
with
a
steady,
burning
sight.
Oh,
Haggai,
keep
your
eyes
upon
the
dawn,
Even
when
the
strength
is
nearly
gone.
When
the
silence
is
the
only
friend
you
know,
That’
s
the
moment
that
your
spirit
starts
to
grow.
Stand
tall,
let
the
doubt
just
fade
to
gray,
There
is
a
brand
new
rhythm
on
the
way.
Yeah,
you’
re
rising,
rising
on
your
own,
A
foundation
made
of
solid,
steady
stone.
You're
rising,
Haggai.
Walking
on
your
own
terms
now.
No
looking
back.
Just
the
road
ahead.
Keep
rising. (
