Is this it? If anyone knows the author, PLEASE post it in order to give them credit. Somehow, it was deleted when I saved it.

Order of the Books of the Old Testament

The great Jehovah speaks to us In Genesis and Exodus
Leviticus and Numbers see, Followed by Deuteronomy. Joshua
and Judges sway the land Ruth gleans a sheaf 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, The Proverbs teach to scatter alms. Ecclesiastes
then come on, And the sweet Song 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 Habakkuk finds room,
While Zephaniah, Haggai calls, Rapt Zechariah builds his
walls, And Malachi, with garments rent, Concludes the
ancient testament. ________________________
