It begins in Genesis with a bit of a run to Exodus You wanna see some of the laws in Leviticus And the way the camp gets sorted in Numbers – divine! Deuteronomy leads into Joshua, great guy, made mistakes But those Judges what could I say, so bad And then when you think what a terrible human race We get to meet Boaz, Naomi and Ruth – what a girl. The one twos come next. Samuel, Kings and Chronicles Amazing stories of bold kings and prophets as you do. Ezra, Nehemiah and Esther tell their stories next Which leads up to the guy with the mostest who loses it all Job Epic songs and poems with Psalms and wisdom Oh so very, very wise. Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Song of Songs Followed by some goodies Isaiah and Jeremiah Stand up those who love a good lament! Cos Lamentations is next with Ezekiel bringing clouds. Daniel, those dreams – wow man! What were you on! But seriously thank you, the imagery is the bomb Hosea, you gotta do what he says and You held your head high as you showed us – all means all Joel, not Billy tells us loads of restoration and blessings Amos, not Brierley and Obadiah plumb lines and warnings Jonah – don’t we all be a bit like Jonah running away The social justice of Micah and the short Nahum Who would want to live in Ninevah with his vision Bring us to the H – Z’s Habbakuk, Zephaniah, Haggai and Zechariah With Malachi bringing up the rear with tales of judgement, To restore His people and to bless them all day long.
