Johnny cash the ten commandments lyrics

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...
