Little Moses(Chords)

	        
C           G        C 
Away by the river so clear, 
    C           G             C 
The ladies were winding their way, 
    G 
And Pharaoh's little daughter stepped down in the water 
   C            F           C 
To bathe in the cool of the day. 
  C       F/C C        C      F/C C 
Before it was dark she opened the ark 
                    G          C 
And found the sweet infant was there. 

C           G        C 
And away by the waters so blue, 
    C           G          C 
The infant was lonely and sad. 
     G 
She took him in pity and thought him so pretty 
   C            F           C 
And it made little Moses so glad. 
  C       F/C C        C      F/C C 
She called him her own, her beautiful son 
                    G          C 
And sent for a nurse that was near. 

C                G        C 
And away by the river so clear, 
    C           G           C 
They carried the beautiful child, 
       G 
To his own tender mother, his sister and brother, 
   C            F           C 
Little Moses looked happy and smiled. 
  C       F/C C           C      F/C C 
His mother so good done all that she could 
                    G          C 
To rear him and teach him with care. 

C           G        C 
And away by the sea that was red, 
    C           G           C 
Little Moses the servant of God, 
           G 
While in him confided, the sea was divided, 
   C          F         C 
As upward he lifted his rod. 
  C            F/C C        C      F/C C 
The Jews safely crossed while Pharaoh's host 
                    G          C 
Was drownded in the waters and lost. 

C           G        C 
And away on the mountain so high, 
    C           G             C 
The last one that ever might see, 
            G 
While in his victorious, his hope was most glorious 
   C            F           C 
He'd soon o'er the Jordan be free. 
  C             F/C C        C         F/C C 
When his labor did cease, he departed in peace 
                 G          C 
And rested in the Heavens above.
