Little Moses - Joan Baez (琼·贝兹)
Away by the waters so blue
The ladies were winding their way
When Pharaoh's little daughter
Went down to the water
To bathe in the cool of the day
And before it was dark
She looked in the ark
And found a sweet infant was there
And before it was dark
She looked in the ark
And found a sweet infant was there
And away by the waters so blue
They carried that beautiful child
To his tender mother
His sister and brother
Little Moses looked happy and smiled
And she called him her own
Her beautiful son
And sent for a nurse that was near
And she called him her own
Her beautiful son
And sent for a nurse that was near
And away by the sea
That was red so red
Little Moses the servant of God
Before him subsided
The seas were divided
As upwards he lifted his rod
And the Jews safely crossed
While Pharaoh's host
Were drownded in the waters and lost
And the Jews safely crossed
While Pharaoh's host
Were drownded in the waters and lost
And away on a mountain so high
The last one that he ever did see
With Israel victorious
His hopes were most glorious
That same day 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
