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 bands of Gideon, 
You may brag about your men of Saul, 
But you never saw nothing like Joshua 
At the battle of Jericho! 

The sun stop shining in the middle of the day 
The sky began the storm 
The ram horns, the sheep horns began the blow 
When the walls came tumblin’ down! 

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

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 

Joshua fought the battle of Jericho, 
Jericho, Jericho, 
Joshua fought the battle of Jericho, 
And the walls came tumbling down! 

Well, the Bible says that Joshua’s spear 
Was eightfold cubits long 
And upon his hip was a double edged sword 
And his mouth was a gospel horn 

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 

Joshua fought the battle of Jericho, 
Jericho, Jericho, 
Joshua fought the battle of Jericho, 
And the walls came tumbling down!
