Johnny Cash - The Ten Commandments Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • 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 adult'ry 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...
