JOSHUA – Devoted to Cherem by Bro H

Verse 1 The priests went first with the Ark of might, Then at the word the people stepped through, Jordan’s strength was held in sight, Every promise was coming due. All the tribes passed through in line, On dry ground where the river’s waters had been, Twelve stones set as covenant sign, The crossing sealed, the campaign begins Pre-Chorus —(silence & order) No trumpet yet, no lifted voice, They circled walls in line, Six days passed in measured steps, The city marked by time. Chorus City by city, the judgment came, Devoted whole, no spoil, no claim, Every breath by Yahweh named, Every border marked by flame. No pity shown, as the Lord commanded, What was decreed was carried through, Cherem sworn, destruction devoted, Judgment was passed, and everyone knew Verse 2 — Jericho Once each day in ordered pace, Six in silence, line by line, Walls stood firm in hardened face, Unaware of the Lord’s time. Seventh day the pattern broke, Seven rounds the circle drawn, Trumpets sounded as He spoke, And the city fell at dawn. Chorus City by city, the judgment came, Devoted whole, no spoil, no claim, Every breath by Yahweh named, Every border marked by flame. No turning back, the word stood fast, What was spoken came to pass, Cherem sworn, the ground was filled, The land made clean by Yahweh’s will. Bridge — South and north, the kings fell fast, Hill and plain, the field, the vale, None escaped, none slipped past, Every breath to judgment pale. As He said, so it was done, Every word remained unbent, Yahweh fought, the battle won, Till the land from war was spent. Final Chorus — City by city, the judgment came, Devoted whole, no spoil, no claim, Covenant sealed upon the land, By the strength of the Lord’s hand. No turning back, the word stood fast, What was spoken came to pass, Cherem sworn, the ground was filled, The land made clean by Yahweh’s will. Outro — Rest And the land… Had rest… From war.
