Dave Fenley - Joshua 1: 9 Lyrics

JOSHUA 1:9

IT WAS BIG LEAGUE CHEW AND A WIFFLE BALL
A PLASTIC BAT FOR THAT LITTLE SOUTH PAW
HIS DIAMOND WAS THE BACK LAWN
HE WAS SWINGING FOR THE MOON
A WARRIOR'S HEART FROM DAY ONE
FEARLESS LIKE HIS FATHERS SON
A LOCAL HERO HE WOULD BECOME
BUT GOD KNOWS WAY TOO SOON

CHORUS
BAPTIZED AT SEVENTEEN
HIGH SCHOOL PROM AND A STATE CHAMP RING
THEN ONWARD TO BE A MARINE
WITH COURAGE STRENGTH AND PRIDE
HE LIVED TO LOVE AND LOVED TO LIVE
GAVE EVERY BREATH HE HAD TO GIVE
NOW HE LIVES ON ONE DOG TAG AT A TIME
JOSHUA 1:9

NOW THAT BIBLE VERSE JUMPS OFF THE PAGE
AND WE FIND PURPOSE IN THE PAIN
WE KNOW HE LIVED UP TO HIS NAME
FOR HIS COUNTRY AND THE LORD
WE KNOW HE'S GONE BUT HE STILL LIVES
WE FIND COMFORT KNOWING WHERE HE IS
AND THAT DAY WE MEET AGAIN AND WALK THAT GOLDEN SHORE

CHORUS
BAPTIZED AT SEVENTEEN
HIGH SCHOOL PROM AND A STATE CHAMP RING
THEN ONWARD TO BE A MARINE
WITH COURAGE STRENGTH AND PRIDE
HE LIVED TO LOVE AND LOVED TO LIVE
GAVE EVERY BREATH HE HAD TO GIVE
NOW HE LIVES ON ONE DOG TAG AT A TIME
JOSHUA 1:9

TAG
HE LIVED TO LOVE AND LOVED TO LIVE
GAVE EVERY BREATH HE HAD TO GIVE
NOW HE LIVES ON ONE DOG TAG AT A TIME
JOSHUA 1:9
