Joshuah Fit the Battle of Jericho

Joshua fit de battle of Jericho,

Jericho, Jericho.

Joshua fit de battle of Jericho

And the walls come tumblin' down.

Good Morning Sister Mary,

Good morning Brother Joe.

Gonna tell you 'bout old Joshua

And the battle of Jericho.

You can talk about your king of Gideon.

You can brag about your man of Saul,

But there's none like good old Joshua

For to make those old walls fall.

They tell me that the spear of Joshua

Was well nigh twelve foot long

And upon his hip was the doubvle-edged sword

And the man was gospel born.

Up to the walls of Jericho

He marched with spear in hand.

"Go blow dem ram's horns loud and clear

"For the battle am in my hand."

Then the ram-sheep's horns began to blow,

So loudly did they sound.

Then all God's children shouted out

And the walls come a-tumblin' down.
