2 Chron 26:1-10

A.m. 8 Dec., 2021

Uzziah was a mighty fine warrior Just sixteen when he became king! (Yeah, the Chronicles recorded it twice) [1,3] And did right in the sight of the Lord, Just like his daddy – before he backslid, (4) But he prospered while he did the right thing. (5) Went to war against those Philistines; Broke down the walls of Gath and Jebneh, And did the same to the walls of Ashdod. Built cities among the Philistines; (6) Fought Arabians and Meunites, too, And took from the Ammonites tribute. (8) (Oh, what a wacked out, crazy world! You’d think they’d get a clue; “Follow the Lord, whatever you do.”) Uzziah built towers at the Corner Gate (9) At the Valley Gate and a third at the Corner! Built towers in the wilderness with cisterns; Had all kind o’ critters t’ feed an’ water! (10)
