Little Moses | |
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 | |
And away by the waters so blue | |
The infant was lonely and sad | |
She took him in pity and thought him so pretty | |
And it made little Moses so glad | |
She called him her own, her beautiful son | |
And she sent for a nurse who was near | |
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 | |
His mother so good did all that she could | |
To raise him and teach him with care | |
And away by the sea that was 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 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 |
