Lyrics

The Lord of Israel revealed to Joshua
His plan for him to conquer Jericho:
„For seven days you go marching around it
And My mighty power you will know!

Have seven priests carry trumpets of rams’ horns
And they should walk in front of the ark,
When you hear the blast of the trumpets
All your men should give a mighty shout!”

Let’s follow Joshua and join in this battle
So we take over the strong Jericho!
Though we don’t grasp the whole plan of action,
We’ll keep on marching, for our God has told us so.

Let’s follow Joshua and join in this battle
So we take over the strong Jericho!
Though we don’t grasp the whole plan of action,
We’ll keep on marching, for God has told us so.

No, we cannot understand in a lifetime
The things that God is asking us to do,
How can the city walls ever fall down?
We don’t have the smallest clue.

God doesn’t want a war with weapons and fighting,
He only wants us march around the walls
And, bare hands, wants to see us in action,
Fulfill His plan until the city falls.

Let’s follow Joshua and join in this battle
So we take over the strong Jericho!
Though we don’t grasp the whole plan of action,
We’ll keep on marching, for our God has told us so.

Let’s follow Joshua and join in this battle
So we take over the strong Jericho!
Though we don’t grasp the whole plan of action,
We’ll keep on marching, for God has told us so.

By mere faith we proceed in the battle
And march around the walls every day.
Step by step Jericho we shall conquer
No matter what will come our way.

The seven priests who were carrying the trumpets
Blew them loud at the sound of the horn,
Then the army of men started shouting
And the walls of the city were torn!

Let’s follow Joshua and join in this battle
So we take over the strong Jericho!
Though we don’t grasp the whole plan of action,
We’ll keep on marching, for our God has told us so.

Let’s follow Joshua and join in this battle
So we take over the strong Jericho!
Though we don’t grasp the whole plan of action,
We’ll keep on marching, for God has told us so.

We followed Joshua and joined in this battle
And obeyed God’s precious command,
The mighty stone walls were crumbled forever
And God delivered Jericho into our hands!

We followed Joshua and joined in this battle
And obeyed God’s precious command,
The mighty stone walls were crumbled forever
And God delivered Jericho into our hands!

And God delivered Jericho into our hands!

God delivered Jericho into our hands!
