Lyrics

Verse 1
Elijah, the old prophet
heard it plain and true:
not in the wind or earthquake —
the still small voice came through.
Chorus
Happy birthday, Elijah, fire in the quiet,
the calm that carries thunder, the peace that starts a riot
of laughter down the hallway when you finally crack a grin,
Elijah, one more year of you — let the good times in.
Verse 2
You speak up when it matters
and let the small stuff pass,
you're the deep end of the evening,
the slow burn that lasts.
Bridge
Chariots of fire took the first one to the sky —
you just take the aux cord, and honestly, that's why.
Chorus
Happy birthday, Elijah, fire in the quiet,
Elijah, light the candles — then go ahead and fly it.
