Little Moses 歌詞

Little Moses (小摩西) - Joan Baez (瓊·貝茲)

Written by:Joan Baez

Away by the waters so blue

 

The ladies were winding their way

 

While pharaoh's little daughter went down to the water

To bathe in the cool of the day

 

Before it was dark she opened the ark

And found the sweet babe that was there

 

Before it was dark she opened the ark

 

And found the sweet babe that was there

 

And away by the waters so blue

 

They carried that beautiful child

 

To his tender mother to his sister and brothers

 

Little Moses looked happy and smiled

 

She called him her own her beautiful son

 

And she sent for a nurse who was near

 

She called him her own her beautiful son

 

And she sent for a nurse who was near

 

And away by the sea that was red so red

 

Little Moses the servant of god

 

While in him confided the sea was divided

 

As upwards he lifted his rod

 

And the Jews safely crossed while pharaoh's host

Was drownded in the waters and lost

 

And the Jews safely crossed while pharaoh's host

 

Was drownded in the waters and lost

 

And away on a mountain so high

 

The last that he ever did see

 

With Israel victorious his hopes were most glorious

That soon all the Jordan be free

 

When his spirit did cease he departed in peace

And rested in the heavens above

 

When his spirit did cease he departed in peace

 

 

And rested in the heavens above
