Joshua

The time had now come there was no more delay, the Israelites will take Canaan
Joshua sent spies to scout out their land, gauging the size of their forces
He sent out the Ark carried by priests, and ordered the Twelve Tribes behind it
The priests reached the river the water receded and backed up to a town called Adam

Crossing the Jordan with divine help they knew
The Lord would deliver them soon!
The arrival of Israel was now drawing near
The hearts of their enemies melting with fear!

No one will be able to stand against you!
As in the desert with Moses, I will be with you!
Be strong and courageous, and you will lead them to their land!
The land that I had sworn that I would give to them!

A man from each tribe each took up a stone from the dry river bottom of the Jordan
A memorial made at the place where they camped to remind them of this holy miracle
The fighting aged men were all circumcised by the flint knives forged by Joshua
At a place called Gilgal on the Jericho Plains they all celebrated Passover

Crossing the Jordan with divine help they knew
The Lord would deliver them soon!
The arrival of Israel was now drawing near
The hearts of their enemies melting with fear!

No one will be able to stand against you!
As in the desert with Moses, I will be with you
Be strong and courageous, and you will lead them to their land!
The land that I had sworn that I would give to them!

Joshua!
Oh, oh, oh Joshua!
Yeah!
