Joshua fit the battle of Jericho,

Jerico, Jerico.

Joshua fit the battle of Jerico

and the walls came tumblin’ down. (2v.)

You may talk about the king of Gedeon,

you may talk about the man of Saul,

there’s none like old Joshua

at the battle of Jericho. Halleluja!

Up to the walls of Jericho

he marched with spear in hand;

«Go blow in your trumpets», Joshua cried,

«‘cause the battle is in my hand». Halleluja!

Then the lamb ram ships horns ‘gin to blow,

trumpets begin to sound,

Joshua commanded the children to shout

and the walls came tumbling down. Halleluja!
