Johnny Cash - The Ten Commandments lyrics
[Johnny Cash - The Ten Commandments lyrics]
Moses led God's children out to
Find the promised land
And on the way he'd stop each
Day and look to Heaven and
Asked God for help as he could
Not withstand the task alone
And then one day he looked away
And thereby lay a stone
God said write upon this stone these
Words I say to you
And if you all obey my rules
I'll see you safely through
God opened Heaven's door and then
He guided Moses hands
And then He said go and tell
My children these are my commands
Go and climb that mountain Moses climb
That mountain now and pray
Climb that mountain now and tell us what
Our Lord has had to say
Thou shalt have no Gods before
Me is my great command
And thou shalt not make any
Graven image by thy hand
Thou shalt not take my name in
Vain if thou would guiltless be
Remember thou to keep the sabbath
Day alone for me
Honor thy father and thy mother
And thou shalt not kill
Thou shalt not commit adultt try
And thou shalt not steal
Love thy neighbor as thyself and
Show thy neighbor peace
Covet not thy neighbor's house
Nor anything that's his
Go and climb that mountain
Moses showed these words of God
To all the children then
They pulled up stakes and headed out
To find the promised land
That Moses had described to them
And told of comforts there
The children of oppression thought
They'd not find anywhere
But they were soon to part from
Him and push alone awhile
For it was never meant for him
To walk that final mile
The children cried if we must
Go on Moses without you
Then talk to God just one more time
And tell us what to do
Go and climb that mountain
Thou shalt have no Gods before me
Find the promised land
And on the way he'd stop each
Day and look to Heaven and
Asked God for help as he could
Not withstand the task alone
And then one day he looked away
And thereby lay a stone
God said write upon this stone these
Words I say to you
And if you all obey my rules
I'll see you safely through
God opened Heaven's door and then
He guided Moses hands
And then He said go and tell
My children these are my commands
Go and climb that mountain Moses climb
That mountain now and pray
Climb that mountain now and tell us what
Our Lord has had to say
Thou shalt have no Gods before
Me is my great command
And thou shalt not make any
Graven image by thy hand
Thou shalt not take my name in
Vain if thou would guiltless be
Remember thou to keep the sabbath
Day alone for me
Honor thy father and thy mother
And thou shalt not kill
Thou shalt not commit adultt try
And thou shalt not steal
Love thy neighbor as thyself and
Show thy neighbor peace
Covet not thy neighbor's house
Nor anything that's his
Go and climb that mountain
Moses showed these words of God
To all the children then
They pulled up stakes and headed out
To find the promised land
That Moses had described to them
And told of comforts there
The children of oppression thought
They'd not find anywhere
But they were soon to part from
Him and push alone awhile
For it was never meant for him
To walk that final mile
The children cried if we must
Go on Moses without you
Then talk to God just one more time
And tell us what to do
Go and climb that mountain
Thou shalt have no Gods before me
