A# F A#
Away by the river so clear,
A# F A#
The ladies were winding their way,
F
And Pharaoh's little daughter stepped down in the water
A# D# A#
To bathe in the cool of the day.
A# D#/A# A# A# D#/A# A#
Before it was dark she opened the ark
F A#
And found the sweet infant was there.
A# F A#
And away by the waters so blue,
A# F A#
The infant was lonely and sad.
F
She took him in pity and thought him so pretty
A# D# A#
And it made little Moses so glad.
A# D#/A# A# A# D#/A# A#
She called him her own, her beautiful son
F A#
And sent for a nurse that was near.
A# F A#
And away by the river so clear,
A# F A#
They carried the beautiful child,
F
To his own tender mother, his sister and brother,
A# D# A#
Little Moses looked happy and smiled.
A# D#/A# A# A# D#/A# A#
His mother so good done all that she could
F A#
To rear him and teach him with care.
A# F A#
And away by the sea that was red,
A# F A#
Little Moses the servant of God,
F
While in him confided, the sea was divided,
A# D# A#
As upward he lifted his rod.
A# D#/A# A# A# D#/A# A#
The Jews safely crossed while Pharaoh's host
F A#
Was drownded in the waters and lost.
A# F A#
And away on the mountain so high,
A# F A#
The last one that ever might see,
F
While in his victorious, his hope was most glorious
A# D# A#
He'd soon o'er the Jordan be free.
A# D#/A# A# A# D#/A# A#
When his labor did cease, he departed in peace
F A#
And rested in the Heavens above.
