When the Walls Fell

When the Walls fell

The horns were blowing

And there was a yell

After Israel’s going

Round the city

When the bricks crashed

The trumpets sounded

With the towers dashed

All the stones were grounded

Round the city

But it wasn’t the rumbling

It wasn’t the band

That resulted in crumbling

Of the walls into sand

It was all from the promise

From the grace of the Word

And the vow still applies

To all those who have heard

For there are no walls

That God can’t breach

There are no captives

That He can’t reach

There is no fortress

No castle no cave

From which God is

Unable to save

This hope is built

On stronger stuff

Because God is

ALWAYS enough
