In days gone by long long ago, God Almighty chose a man  
From Ur of the Chaldees, He named him Abraham  
-
He had a son named Isaac, Rebecca was his wife  
With his brother Ishmael…was the start of all the strife  
-
Isaac’s son was Jacob, he grabbed his brother’s heel  
But Esau sold his birthright…continued the ordeal  
-
Jacob had twelve sons, Joseph was his joy  
Off he went to Egypt, by his brothers ploy  
-
Days and days and years and years, centuries go by  
“Bless me Father, bless me”, you can still hear Esau’s cry  
-
“Esau have I hated, but Jacob I do love”  
The strife will not be over, ‘till God solves it from above  
-
God Almighty has been patient, but His patients will soon end  
Two Anointed Ones in sackcloth, He’s about to send  
-
They’ll be on the Temple Mount, they will preach a message dire  
Do not aggravate them, on you they will breathe fire
