Joshua, Walls of Jericho

Joshua

Moses fell beneath the mountain sky And the mantle passed with tears unshed You said, rise now, do not turn aside Every place I give where your feet are led Jordan swelled before the ark of God Yet the waters bowed where your presence stood Twelve stones raised where the river broke So our sons would know that you are good Be strong, be brave, do not fear the night You go before us, You are our light We will follow where Your promise leads Through the flood, through the flame, through the enemy At the sound of your name, every wall will fall You have gone before us, Lord above it all Land of mercy, land of ancient vow What you spoke in vain is before us now We will serve the Lord We will stand and say You are God among us To this day Trumpets cried around the hardened stone And the city shook beneath your hand But when sin was hid, the strong were brought low Till we turned again to your command The sun stood still above the field of war Kings were scattered by your mighty breath You gave rest to every tribe by lot And fulfilled your word through life and death Choose this day whom you will serve Stone and sword cannot preserve But as for me and all my house We will bow and make this vow As for me and all my house We will serve the Lord
