E A
the ladies were winding their way,

and Pharaoh's little daughter stepped down in the water,
A E A
to bathe in the cool of the day.

Before it was dark, she opened the ark,
E A
and found the sweet infant was there. (2x)

And away by the waters so blue,
E A
the infant was lonely and sad.

And away by the river so clear

they carried the beautiful child,

His mother so good, done all that she could
E A
to rear him and teach him with care. (2x)

And away by the sea that was red,
E A
little Moses, the servant of God,

E A
and rested in the Heavens above. (2x)
