Heritage Singers - Set Me On the Rock lyrics

Moses, weary of wanderin' His task was nearly complete The Lord said let me show you a land where my people can rest their feet But you, my servant, have paid the price You've been a shepherd to the weak So go look down from this mountain and then come on home to me Set me on the rock, Joshua Let me view the promised land Set me on the rock, Joshua He delivered to us by His mighty hand Through the wilderness He led us By his bountiful hand He fed us So set me on the rock, Joshua Let me gaze upon Israel's prize For seven days they did not speak A mighty battle was at hand God had told his children to go out and possess the land On the seventh day, the seventh hour, the seventh time around His holy purpose was fulfilled and the walls came a'tumblin' down Set me on the rock, Joshua Let me view the promised land Set me on the rock, Joshua He delivered to us by His mighty hand Through the wilderness He led us By his bountiful hand He fed us So set me on the rock, Joshua Let me gaze upon Israel's prize Well, the lamb was led to slaughter The stage already set An eternal sacrifice was made One for all the rest Now the mercy seed is covered by the blood from His own hands And the rock of ages took His place as the bridge between God and man Just set me on the rock, Joshua Let me view the promised land Set me on the rock, Joshua He delivered to us by His mighty hand Through the wilderness He led us By his bountiful hand He fed us So set me on the rock, Joshua Let me gaze upon Israel's prize
