Contents |
And God said. Go forth -- God of our fathers. In the land of Canaan ; Take now thy son ; A pillow of stones -- A coat of many colors. On the banks of the Nile ; And they made their lives bitter ; A wall of water -- The great and terrible wilderness. A land of fiery snakes and scorpions ; On holy ground ; The God-trodden mountain -- The land that devours its people. Wandering ; And the earth opened its mouth ; The land of milk and honey -- Toward the promised land. The wars of the Lord ; Half as old as time ; Sunrise in the palm of the Lord ; And the people believed ; Take these words. |
