[Verse 1]
Now, JeEhoshaphat's king in Jerusalem A Along long time Eago
When the children o' Judah
EAll worshipped the Lord From the Bhigh on down to the low
And EJudah was a wealthy kingdom AEverybody's children were Efed
Cuz Jehoshaphat studied the word of the Lord
And Bdid everything He Esaid
[Verse 2]
But Fout of the east came an army one day BbAfter Jehoshaphat's Fgold
They were marchin' right straight to Jerusalem
And CJehoshaphat soon was told So he Fcalled all the people together And Bbeverybody fasted and Fprayed
The Lord God answered the people and said
There's Cno need--for you to be Fafraid
[Verse 3]
Cause the F#battle is Mine tomorrow It's not Byours and it's not the F#king's
And all you gotta do is just stand and watch
To C#see the Salvation I bring Just beF#lieve that what I've told ya Is exBactly what I'm gonna F#do
And go out tomorrow against them now
Cause the C#Lord's gonna fight for F#you Great jumpin' Jehoshaphat!
[Verse 4]
Well, the Garmy rose early next mornin' They Cmarched on out with the Gking
Jehoshaphat chose some singers
And Dtold those singers to sing And they Gpraised the beauty of holiness InCstead of shoutin' out a battle Gcry
And all the way down to the enemy's camp
They Dsang to the Lord on Ghigh And they were singin...
[Chorus]
GPraise ye the Lord His Cmercy endures forGever and ever
Praise ye the Lord
His Dmercy endures forever and ever GPraise ye the Lord His Cmercy endures forGever and ever
Praise ye the Lord our God
His Fmercy, will never Gend
[Verse 5]
Well, the G#Lord God set up an ambush Got the C#enemy all turned G#around
Got into killin' each other ya know
Till they D#all lay dead on the ground And the G#riches and the jewels they left behind Took 'em C#three whole days to G#haul
The children o' Judah all praised the Lord
Cause He D#saved them one and G#all They were singin...
[Chorus]
G#Praise ye the Lord His C#mercy endures forG#ever and ever
Praise ye the Lord
His D#mercy endures forever and ever G#Praise ye the Lord His C#mercy endures forG#ever and ever
Praise ye the Lord our God
His F#mercy, will never G#end
[Verse 6]
If the Aparallel ain't real obvious now I'll Dspell it right out for Ayou
When you see trouble comin' to rip you off
Here's Eall that you need to do Just Apray to your Heavenly Father And beDlieve that His word is Atrue
And step out and shout the Salvation of God
Cause He'll Ewin that battle for Ayou
[Chorus]
APraise ye the Lord His Dmercy endures forAever and ever
