JORDAN RIVER
(Take 12 Stones Out - Children's songs from Joshua #4)

Take 12 stones out—for a memorial,
Take 12 stones out—one stone for every tribe,
Take 12 stones out—then shall your children know,
Israel came over Jordan, marching on dry land.

What do these stone mean—Israel had chosen God,
What do these stones mean—a new life they'd begun,
What do these stones mean—that they would not turn back,
They're God's testimony, living in the promised land.

(Chorus):
When the priests' feet touched the river Jordan
The waters were blocked from a way off
And the river bed was dry that the people
Could pass over on dry land.

Put 12 stones in—for a memorial
Put 12 stones in—to stay in Jordan's flow
Put 12 stones in—old life has passed away
No more life of wand'ring, we have entered the good land

(Chorus)

Take 12 stones out—for a memorial
Take 12 stones out—one stone for every tribe
Take 12 stones out—then shall your children know
Israel came over Jordan, marching on dry land.
They're God's testimony, living in the promised land
No more life of wand'ring, we have entered the good land.
