Enoch

1/18/1992

There’s a story from the Bible, friends, that I am gonna tell

It’s ‘bout a man who walked with God and knew Him very well

So if you think God’s far away, then you’re in for a shock

Come learn a lesson from the life of a man who’s named Enoch

Chorus:

Enoch…Enoch…The man who walked with God

He was a lot like you and me—don’t think him very odd

In a wicked generation he was solid as a rock

Come learn a lesson from the life of a man who’s named Enoch

Now Enoch wasn’t special—just an ordinary Joe

He never wrote a single book or had a TV show

If you think that’s what matters, though, we need to have a talk

I bet you’ll learn a thing or two from simple ol’ Enoch

(chorus)

Now Enoch knew God loved him and that he could be His friend

He saw this world was fading fast, and coming to an end

And so he figured he and God should kinda have a talk

That was the first day of a life-long journey for Enoch

(chorus)

Enoch sought to know the Lord as he walked along the way

The more he learned the heart of God, the more he would obey

And so he made some choices that his neighbors often mocked

But wait until you find out what became of our Enoch

(chorus)

Enoch and The Lord grew closer each and ev’ry day

God couldn’t wait for him to die, so he plum took him away!

The last his fam’ly could recall, he’d gone out for a walk

And now he lives with God, forever, happily, Enoch!

(chorus)

Now Enoch is a shadow of the Bride that’s meant to be

But if she’s gonna be prepared, it starts with you and me

So open up your heart to God, and throw away the lock

And you’ll know what it’s like to walk with Him like ol’ Enoch

2nd Chorus:

Enoch…Enoch …The man who walked with God

He was a lot like you and me—don’t think him very odd

In a wicked generation he was solid as a rock

Come learn a lesson from the life of a man who’s named Enoch
