Joshua Fought the Battle of Jericho Lyrics

Lyric discussion by vphi 

Cover art for Joshua Fought the Battle of Jericho lyrics by Les Humphries

"people of Bethlehem" seem to refer to King Herod's slaughter of the children

"let my people go" seem to refer to Moses before Pharaoh

No reference to the wall-crushing trumpets, though.

There was another folk song report of a battle from Les Humphries Singers: Mexico. I wonder is it just as accurate :)
