Joan Baez – Little Moses (Guitar)

C
And away by the waters so blue

C
The ladies were winding their way

     G7
When Pharaoh's little daughter stepped down to the water

   C
To bathe in the cool of the day

C
And before it was dark, she looked in the ark

C
And found sweet infant was there

C
And before it was dark, she looked in the ark

C
And found sweet infant was there

C
And away by the waters so blue

C
She carried that beautiful child

   G7
To his tender mother, his sister and brother

       C
Little Moses looked happy and smiled

C
And she called him her own, her beautiful son

         G                    C
And sent for a nurse that was near

C
And she called him her own, her beautiful son

         G                    C
And sent for a nurse that was near

C
And away by the sea that was red, so red

              G              C
Little Moses, the servant of God

  G
Before him subsided, the seas were divided

     C         G          C
When upward he lifted his rod

C
And the Jews safely crossed while Pharaoh's host

              G                 C
Were drownded in the waters and lost

C
And the Jews safely crossed while Pharaoh's host

C
Were drownded in the waters and lost

C
And away on a mountain so high

C
The last one that he ever did see

     G7
With Israel victorious, his hopes were most glorious

C
Someday all Jordan be free

C
When his spirit did cease, he departed in peace

C
And rested in the Heavens above

C
When his spirit did cease, he departed in peace

           G               C
And rested in the Heavens above
