Joshua Fought the Battle of Jericho

Joshua fought the battle of Jericho,
Jericho, Jericho,
Joshua fought the battle of Jericho,
And the walls came tumbling down!
You may talk about your men of Gideon,
You may talk about your men of Saul,
But there's none like good old Joshua
And the battle of Jericho!
Joshua fought the battle of Jericho,
Jericho, Jericho,
Joshua fought the battle of Jericho,
And the walls came tumbling down!

Right up to the walls of Jericho
They marched with spear in hand;
"Go blow them ram horns," Joshua cried,
"Cause the battle is in my hand."
Joshua fought the battle of Jericho,
Jericho, Jericho,
Joshua fought the battle of Jericho,
And the walls came tumbling down!
Then the lamb, ram,
Sheep horns began to blow,
And the trumpets began to sound,
Joshua told the children to shout that morning
And the walls came tumbling down!
Joshua fought the battle of Jericho,
Jericho, Jericho,
Joshua fought the battle of Jericho,
And the walls came tumbling down!
And the walls came tumbling down!
And the walls came tumbling down!

Jesus and Jairus

Jairus said to Jesus, (O ya)

"My little girl's dyin' (O ya)
Please come to my house, (o ya)

There's gonna be cryin'. (O ya)

(nanananananananananananananananananana)

His friend told Jairus,

"Your little girl's dead
So don't bother Jesus"

Was all he said.

nanananananananananananananananananana)

When he saw them all crying,

He said "Don't weep.
Just believe and you'll see,

She's just asleep"

But they said, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Jesus put them all out,

He took her by the hand
He said "Maid arise",

And her spirit came again.

(nanananananananananananananananananana)

Man is immortal,

She can’t be dead.
And Jesus made sure

That she was fed.

(nanananananananananananananananananana)

Joy, joy, joy, joy, the gospel in a word is joy
Joy that fills to overflowing, joy, joy, joy.

Peace, peace, peace, peace, the gospel in a word is peace,
Peace that passes understanding, peace, peace, peace.

Love, love, love, love, the gospel in a word is love.
Love your neighbour as your sister, love, love, love.






This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine.
This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine, let it shine, let it shine, let it shine.


Won't let anyone blow it out.
I'm gonna let it shine.
Won't let anyone blow it out.
I'm gonna let it shine, let it shine, let it shine, let it shine.
(When the kids sing "Won't let Satan blow it out....they blow on their finger.)

I’m going to take this light around the world
I'm gonna let it shine.
I’m going to take this light around the world
I'm gonna let it shine, let it shine, let it shine, let it shine.

Nothing now will hold me back.. I'm going to let it shine

'Tis the gift to be simple,
'tis the gift to be free,
'tis the gift to come down where you ought to be,
And when we find ourselves in the place just right,
It will be in the valley of love and delight.
Refrain: When true simplicity is gained,
To bow and to bend we shan't be ashamed.
To turn, turn will be our delight,
'Til by turning, turning we come round right

'Tis the gift to be loved and that love to return,
'Tis the gift to be taught and a richer gift to learn,
And when we expect of o-thers what we try to live each day,
Then we'll all live together and we'll all learn to say,

Refrain:

'Tis the gift to have friends and a true friend to be,
'Tis the gift to think of others not to only think of "me",
And when we hear what others really think and really feel,
Then we'll all live together with a love that is real. Refrain:

Joshua fought the battle of Jericho
Jericho Jericho
Joshua fougth the battle of Jericho
And the walls come tumbling down

God knows that

And the walls come tumbling down

Good morning sister Mary
Good morning brother John
Well I wanna stop and talk with you
Wanna tell you how I come along

I know you've heard about Joshua
He was the son of Nun
He never stopped his work until
Until the work was done

God knows that
Joshua fought the battle of Jericho
Jericho Jericho
Joshua fought the battle of Jericho
And the walls come tumbling down

You may talk about your men of Gideon
You may brag about your men of Saul
There's none like good old Joshua
At the battle of Jericho

Up to the walls of Jericho
He marched with spear in hand
Go blow them ram horns, Joshua cried
'Cause the battle is in my hands

God knows that
Joshua fought the battle of Jericho
Jericho Jericho
Joshua fought the battle of Jericho
And the walls come tumbling down

You may talk about your men of Gideon
You may brag about your king of Saul
There none like Joshua
At the battle of Jericho

They tell me, great God that Joshua’s spear
Was well nigh twelve feet long
And upon his hip was a double edged sword
And his mouth was a gospel horn

Yet bold and brave he stood
Salvation in his hand
Go blow them ram horns Joshua cried
'Cause the devil can't do you no harm

Joshua fought the battle of Jericho
Jericho Jericho
Joshua fought the battle of Jericho
And the walls come tumbling down

Up to the walls of Jericho
He marched with spear in hand
Go blow them ram horns, Joshua cried
'Cause the battle is in my hands

Then the lamb ram sheep horns began to blow
The trumpets began to sound
Old Joshua shouted glory
And the walls came tumblin' down

God knows that
Joshua fought the battle of Jericho
Jericho Jericho
Joshua fought the battle of Jericho
And the walls come tumbling down

Down, down, down, down, down
Tumblin' down

Didn't my lord deliver Daniel, deliver Daniel, deliver Daniel.
Didn't my lord deliver Daniel, then why not every man.

He delivered Daniel from the lion's den,
jonah from the belly of the whale.
And the hebrew children from the fiery furnace,
then why not every man.

Didn't my lord deliver Daniel, deliver Daniel, deliver Daniel.
Didn't my lord deliver Daniel, then why not every man.



Didn't my lord deliver Daniel, deliver Daniel, deliver Daniel.
Didn't my lord deliver Daniel, then why not every man.

Oh Lordy, How Happy I Am

Well Goliath was the biggest man in the land
And David just a shepherd with a steady hand
But when the king said
Does anybody have a plan?
David said, Yes I do.

Chorus

Oh Lordy how happy I am
Oh Lordy how happy I am
I can feel the Spirit rising in the land
Do you feel it,
Yes I do.

Well the Lord said to Moses
Here’s your traveling plan
You ain’t going to live to see the promised land
But promise me , Mo.
You’ll do what you can
Moses said, “ Yes I do”

Chorus

Well if you love somebody
Got to let them know
If you love this planet
Got to let it show
Like David, and Moses and at Jericho
Promise me now.

Yes I do.

put his arms unfailing round you;

Knock and it shall be opened

Seek ye first the kingdom of God
And His righteousness
And all these things shall be added unto you
Al-le-lu, Al-le-lu-ia!

Ask and it shall be given unto you,
Seek and ye shall find,
Knock and the door shall be opened unto you
Al-le-lu, Al-le-lu-ia!


All things ye would others do unto you
Do even so unto them.
For it is written in the prophets and the law
Al-le-lu, Al-le-lu-ia!


Give me that old time religion

Give me that old time religion
Give me that old time religion
Give me that old time religiion
It’s good enough for me

It worked for the prophets
Even when there were some doubters
If it worked for the prophets
It’s good enough for me

It corrects us as it loves us
It leaves us better for it
If it corrects us as it loves us
And it’s good enough for me

It has stories about Jesus
Even when he was mistreated
If it was good enough for Jesus
And It’s good enough for me.

It tells of Elisha
How he healed and even thrived then
If it’s good enough for Elisha
It’s good enough for me

------------

Whither shall I go from thy spirit?
Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?
If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;
Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.

Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born


Go tell it on the mountain

Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

While shepherds kept their watching
Over silent flocks by night
Behold through out the Heavens
There shown a Holy light

Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

Oh, down in a lowly manger
The humble Christ was born
And brougt us God's salvation
That blessed Christmas morn'

Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born
