The Tabernacle
(Tune Heavenly Sunlight)
The Lord gave Moses detailed instructions
to build a tent to worship Him.
He gave the sizes of all the pieces
And told him where to put all of it.
(chorus)
The tabernacle- God had designed it
To take it down and put it back up---
And as they moved it to different places
When the cloud stopped, they'd put it back up.
There was the courtyard with walls of curtains
The laver for priests to wash hands & feet
There was the altar made of bronze
To sacrifice burnt offerings to G.od
The first room was called the Holy Place.
The furniture there was covered with gold -
a table for 12 pieces of showbread,,
An altar for incense, a lampstand of gold.
In the back room -The Holy of Holies
Only the high priest could enter there.
The Lord would come down to the mercy seat
on the ark of the covenant that was there.
