(Verse 1)
The desert before them, a weary road,
What lay ahead was a heavy load.
From Egypt's chains, they took flight
Guided by a cloud by day and fire by night
But grumbling rose, and doubt took hold,
As promised land stories unfold.
Twelve men Moses sent to spy the land,
To search the new home that God had planned.
(Chorus)
Joshua and Caleb, strong and true,
Their hearts ablaze, with faith anew.
Ten others trembled, filled with fear,
But Joshua and Caleb knew God's plan was clear.
Faithful and bold, willing to fight,
Trusting in God, victory was in sight.
(Verse 2)
Ten spies returned, with fearful tales,
Of giants tall, and hidden trails.
"We are like grasshoppers," they cried,
"Against such foes, we cannot ride."
But Joshua stood, with Caleb united
Their voices firm, their spirits ignited
To truth divine, to what God said,
No fear could shake, no words could dread.
(Chorus)
Joshua and Caleb, strong and true,
Their hearts ablaze, with faith anew.
Ten others trembled, filled with fear,
But Joshua and Caleb knew God's plan was clear.
Faithful and bold, willing to fight,
Trusting in God, with victory in sight.
(Bridge)
Though a generation fell away,
In the wilderness, day by day,
These two remained, their vision clear,
No doubt or wavering, and no fear.
Their trust in God, it never ceased,
A steadfast hope, their faith increased.
(Chorus)
Joshua and Caleb, strong and true,
Their hearts ablaze, with faith anew.
Ten others trembled, filled with fear,
But Joshua and Caleb knew God's plan was clear.
Faithful and bold, willing to fight,
Trusting in God, victory was in sight.
(Outro)
So let their story echo on,
From dusk till dawn, from setting sun.
Joshua and Caleb, names to recall,
Faithful to God, giving their all.
