Books Of The Old Testament
Books of the Old Testament

The great Jehovah speaks to us
In Genesis and Exodus
Loviticus and Numbers seo
Followed by Deuteronomy
Joshua and Judges sway the land,
Ruth gleans a sheat with trembling hand
Samuel and numerous Kings appear,
Whose Chronicles we wondering hear
Ezra and Nehemiah now
Esther the beauteous mourner show
Job speaks in sighs David in Psalms
And Proverbs teach to scatter alms
Ecclesiastes then comes on
With the sweet Songs of Solomon,
Isaiah, Jeremiah then
With Lamentations takes his pen
Ezekiel Daniel Hosea’s lyres
Swell Joel Amos Obadiah’s
Next Jonah Micah, Nahum come
And lofty Habakuk finds room
While Zechariah Haggui calls,
Rapt Zachariah builds his walls,
And Malachi, with garments rent, concludes the ancient Testament
