Andrew Ripp's song 'Jericho' uses the biblical story of Jericho's walls falling as a metaphor for God's love breaking down personal fears and strongholds. The lyrics describe a journey from being trapped in lies and pride to experiencing freedom through Christ's sacrifice. Ripp sings about how God's truth and love dismantle the walls we build around ourselves, leading to victory and forgiveness. The song emphasizes that even before we call on God, He is already fighting for us, and His love turns our prisons into ruins. It's a message of hope and spiritual breakthrough.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

I've stacking up the years I spent trading punches with the enemy
Built myself a double thick stone tower of lies, higher than the eye could see
Trapped in my flesh & bone
Crying out to You Lord, I?m desperate
Love come rattle this cage and set me free

All of my fears, like Jericho walls,
Gotta come down, come down
All of my fears, like Jericho walls,
Gotta come down, come down
Oh Lord, my prison turns to ruin
When Your love moves in
All of my fears, like Jericho walls,
Gotta come down, come down
Come down

Truth was crashing through the pride and the blame
Cutting straight to the heart of me
Long before I ever called your name
You were fighting for my victory
Carved in Your flesh and bone
The wounds that have said my souls forgiven
Oh now I can feel the darkness trembling

Rebuild me from the ground up
All I wanna see is You
Terrify the lies with truth
