Текст песни The Sun Stands Still Upon Gibeon

The king of Jerusalem had heard that they’d taken Ai Gibeon feared Joshua and made peace with him with a lie Adonai-Zedek alarmed at this troubling new revelation He summoned five kings for war to bring their devastation Sun, stand still over Gibeon And you, Moon, over the Valley of Aijalon There has never been a day like it before nor any like it since! The Sun Stood Still! The Sun Stood Still! The Sun Stood Still! Gibeon pled Joshua to protect them from the attack After an all-night march from Gilgal, Joshua struck them in the back On the road down from Beth Horon to Azekah they began to flee The Lord hurled large hail down upon the armies of the kings Sun, stand still over Gibeon And you, Moon, over the Valley of Aijalon There has never been a day like it before nor any like it since! The Sun Stood Still! The Sun Stood Still! The Sun Stood Still! The Amorite armies fall; they fell more by hail than by sword Joshua then spoke to them all in the presence of the Lord The Sun stopped in the sky and delayed going down for a day Surely the Lord was fighting for us! To Gilgal they all marched away Sun, stand still over Gibeon And you, Moon, over the Valley of Aijalon There has never been a day like it before nor any like it since! The Sun Stood Still! The Sun Stood Still! The Sun Stood Still! The Sun Stood Still!
