When God delivered Israel from bondage that day
By a prophet a pillar of fire to guide them on their way
But true to mans nature and just like today
They looked back towards Egypt and in their heart fell away.

CHORUS
As for me and my house well serve the Lord
Well walk in His footsteps
Believe only His word
Well raise up our children in the fear of the Lord
And therell arise not a generation that knows not the Lord

When Joshua led them over to that promised land
They were happy and rejoicing
Enemies fell at their hands
But when Joshuas days were ended
And he lay down his sword
There arose a generation that knew not the Lord

CHORUS
As for me and my house well serve the Lord
Well walk in His footsteps
Believe only His word
Well raise up our children in the fear of the Lord
And therell arise not a generation that knows not the Lord

Let us fight the good fight from day to day
And like Moses said to Pharoah
Were off going out to pray
A lamb for a house with the blood all applied
We will claim our whole families to march by our side

CHORUS
As for me and my house well serve the Lord
Well walk in His footsteps
Believe only His word
Well raise up our children in the fear of the Lord
And therell arise not a generation that knows not the Lord
