Turn Up the Music

Lyrics

Ooh, turn it up Jericho lay sleeping As the generals held their meeting The army of the Lord awaited battle plans Joshua was speaking But his warriors weren't believing their ears 'Cause he said, "carry the trumpets To the front and tell me" Turn up the music, lads The Lord has spoken Shout and the walls will tumble down Turn up the music, now The evil's broken Lying in pieces on the ground A grim committee They marched around the city And on the seventh day They circled seven times There beneath the sunset Joshua called his trumpets to rest And he said, "here's a symphony A victory now" Turn up the music, lads The Lord has spoken Shout and the walls will tumble down Turn up the music, now The evil's broken Lying in pieces on the ground The trumpets blasted a note Of warning to the brick and the mortar The echoes carried His message higher, louder The walls were starting to tremble When all of Israel assembled Shouted for the God of creation Shouted for the birth of their nation Shouted for the years of their wandering Shouted and the walls came a-tumblin' down Ooh, turn it up Can you not hear it? The music of His Spirit The music of a faith that never knew defeat Many walls are standing New Jerichos demanding the fall But who'll blow the horns? Who'll come to His call When He says, "carry your trumpets To the front now"? Come on! Turn up the music, lads The Lord has spoken Shout and the walls will tumble down Turn up the music, now The evil's broken Lying in pieces on the ground Turn up the music, lads The Lord has spoken Shout and the walls will tumble down Turn up the music, now The evil's broken Lying in pieces on the ground...
