Set Me On The Rock, Joshua

Moses, weary of wanderin' His task was nearly complete The Lord said let me
show you a land where my people can rest their feet But you, my servant,
Have paid the price You’ve been a shepherd to the weak So go look down
From this mountain and then come on home to me
Set me on the rock, Joshua Let me view the promised land Set me on the
Rock, Joshua He delivered to us by His mighty hand Through the wilderness
He led us By his bountiful hand He fed us So set me on the rock,
Joshua Let me gaze upon Israel’s prize
For seven days they did not speak A mighty battle was at hand God had
Told his children to go out and possess the land On the seventh day, the
Seventh hour, the seventh time around His holy purpose was fulfilled and the
walls came a’tumblin' down
Set me on the rock, Joshua Let me view the promised land Set me on the
Rock, Joshua He delivered to us by His mighty hand Through the wilderness
He led us By his bountiful hand He fed us So set me on the rock,
Joshua Let me gaze upon Israel’s prize
Well, the lamb was led to slaughter The stage already set An eternal sacrifice
was made One for all the rest Now the mercy seed is covered by the blood
From His own hands And the rock of ages took His place as the bridge between
God and man
Just set me on the rock, Joshua Let me view the promised land Set me on
The rock, Joshua He delivered to us by His mighty hand Through the
Wilderness He led us By his bountiful hand He fed us So set me on the rock,
Joshua Let me gaze upon Israel’s prize
