Lyrics with pictures
CHORUS:
Mud, Sand, Water, Straw. Faster!
Mud and lift.
 Sand and pull.
 Water and raise up.
Straw. Faster! With the sting of the whip on my shoulder.
With the salt of my sweat on my brow.
Elohim, God on high. Can You hear your people cry.
Help us now this dark hour. Deliver us!
 Hear our call deliver us!
Lord of all remember us here in this burning sand.
Deliver us! There's a land you promised us.
Deliver us to the Promised Land!
YOCHEVED: My good and tender son. Don't be frightened and don't be scared.
My son, I have nothing I can give but this chance that you may live.
I pray we'll meet again if He will deliver us!
CHORUS: Deliver us! Hear our prayer!
Deliver us from despair these years of slavery grow too cruel to stand.
Deliver us! There's a land you promised us!
Deliver us out of bondage!
Deliver us to the Promised Land!
YOCHEVED: Hush now my baby be still love don't cry.
Sleep as you're rocked by the stream.
Sleep and remember my last lullaby,
so I'll be with you when you dream.
River, oh river, flow gently for me.
Such precious cargo you bear.
 Do you know somewhere he can live free. River, deliver him there.
YOUNG MIRIAM: Brother you're safe now and safe may you stay. For I have a prayer just for you. Grow, baby brother come back someday. Come and deliver us too. BABY RAMESES: Mommy! QUEEN TUYA: Come, Rameses. We will show Pharaoh your new baby brother, Moses. CHORUS: Deliver us! Send a shepherd to shepherd us! And deliver us to the Promised Land. Deliver us to the Promised Land. YOCHEVED: Deliver us! NOTE: To watch the pictures in high resolution, click on them Watch original songs from The Prince of Egypt soundtrack |
