You know my name
Let me rebrand it
I then, am Joshua.
You are Jericho --
A Jericho in my hands
For God gave you to me
The task is mine now.
I was born to conquer
I was born for this
To utter words of triumph
And exalt and laud
The name above all names.
You are not alone
But I am to defeat you
Including your kings
And mighty men of valor
That the proud heart may lose control
Be angry then, yet not sin.
I, Joshua
The one who'll march around the city
And for six days,
That'll be my routine
A discipline for myself
An act of obedience
Of not letting words slip in
From my mouth that once cursed
Yet now, I'm redeemed.
The trumpets we'll blow
And the Lord was with us
The fame now is of the land
Oh victory! Yes, my victory!
