ALPHABET SONG
(Cy Coben)
Hank Snow - 1953
(Hear, hear, hear the alphabet taken from the good book of the Lord)
(Hear, hear, hear the alphabet taken from the good book of the Lord)
A is for Adam and he was the first man
B for the brimstone that rained on the land
C is for Cain, he killed his brother you know
D is for Daniel to the lions would go
E for Elijah, up to Heaven he went
F for the furnace where Shadrach was sent
G for Goliath, by a boy he was slain
H is for Hannah who prayed not in vain
(Hear, hear, hear the alphabet taken from the good book of the Lord)
(Hear, hear, hear the alphabet taken from the good book of the Lord)
I is for Isaac whom the Lord didn't fail
J is for Jonah and he lived in a whale
K is for kingdom that divided must fall
L is for Lydia who listened to Paul
M is for Moses, saw the light in the dark
N is Noah who built the great ark
O for Obadiah and the prophets he fed
P is for Peter and the tears that he shed
(Hear, hear, hear the alphabet taken from the good book of the Lord)
(Hear, hear, hear the alphabet taken from the good book of the Lord)
Q for Queen of Sheba and the wisdom she saw
R is for Ruth and all the good that she brought
S is for Stephen, for he suffered anew
T is for trumpet that at Jericho blew
U for for Uriah whom David wished dead
V is for vengeance is mine the Lord said
W for wisdom that was Solomon's skill
X for the cross on Calvary's hill
(Hear, hear, hear the alphabet taken from the good book of the Lord)
(Hear, hear, hear the alphabet taken from the good book of the Lord)
Y is for youth who by his brother was sold
Z for Zacharias who shared all his gold
Now if you've paid attention and you've listened to me
Then you have had the Bible from A to Z
Hear, hear, hear the alphabet taken from the good book of the Lord
Hear, hear, hear the alphabet taken from the good book of the Lord
Hear, hear, hear the alphabet taken from the good book of the Lord
Hear, hear, hear the alphabet taken from the good book of the Lord
