[Intro] Under the oak at Shechem the old man called us near. [Verse 1] He started at the beginning, past the river, long ago, where Terah bowed to idols in a land we'll never know. Then God took Abraham by the hand and walked him through this ground, gave him Isaac, gave him Jacob, and the Egypt years came round. [Verse 2] The old man told of frogs and hail, the sea stood on its side, the forty years of desert, and the Jordan opened wide. God sent the hornet on ahead and gave us towns we never built, the olive trees we didn't plant, the vineyards others tilled. [Pre-Chorus] Then he looked at every face and let the quiet fall. He said, pick now who gets your heart, the old gods or the God of all. Then he spoke for his own household and he stood up straight and tall. [Chorus] As for me and my house, we've made up our mind. We'll follow the One who has carried us far. Put the old gods down, leave the river behind. As for me and my house, we know whose we are. We know whose we are. [Verse 3] We shouted back, not us, not ever. We'll never leave Him now. The old man said, He's holy, jealous, don't you make an empty vow. We said, no, we'll follow Him. Then you're the witnesses of this. We said, we are. And he took a stone and set it where the oak tree is. [Chorus] As for me and my house, we've made up our mind. We'll follow the One who has carried us far. Put the old gods down, leave the river behind. As for me and my house, we know whose we are. We know whose we are. [Bridge] Joshua wrote it in the Book of God and raised a great stone up. He said, this stone has heard it all, every word God spoke to us. [Final Chorus] As for me and my house, we've made up our mind. We'll follow the One who has carried us far. Put the old gods down, leave the river behind. As for me and my house, we know whose we are. We know whose we are. [Outro] A hundred and ten when he died. The stone still stands beneath the oak. We know whose we are. We know it still.
