Sun, Stand Still

Joshua was in a bad place and he prayed... What do YOU think happened? Verse 1 [verse] Five kings had come to start a fight, So Joshua marched his men at night, He trusted God to lead the way, And asked the Lord to hold the day. Joshua 10:1–9 Chorus [chorus] The sun stood still, the moon held fast, God made that matchless moment last, For Joshua prayed and God held sway — No other day has been this way! Joshua 10:12–14; Psalm 19:1–4; Habakkuk 3:11 Verse 2 [verse] He looked to God amid the roar, And dared to ask for something more, "Sun, stand still over Gibeon! O moon, stand still in Aijalon!" Joshua 10:12 Chorus [chorus] The sun stood still, the moon held fast, God made that matchless moment last, For Joshua prayed and God held sway — No other day has been this way! Verse 3 [verse] God heard His servant's faithful prayer, And showed His power beyond compare, He rules the stars and hears our cries — Our God is Lord of earth and skies! Joshua 10:13–14; Psalm 121:2; Isaiah 40:26 Chorus [chorus] The sun stood still, the moon held fast, God made that matchless moment last, For Joshua prayed and God held sway — No other day has been this way! Outro [outro] Remember Joshua and pray! Our God still reigns and rules today! The God who held the sun in space Still hears our cries and shows His grace. Hebrews 13:8; James 5:16–17; Psalm 46:10
