Moses

[singermom]

One of my choir members is trying to remember a song about Moses (not "Go Down, Moses"). It is powerful and heavy, relating the deeds and acts of Moses when he was called by God. Any ideas?

I don't know if this is the one your looking for but I thought I would post it just in case.

My Lord Will Send A Moses

Verse: 1
My Lord sent Moses down to see king pharaoh,
well they told him to loose my people and let them go,
they were all burdened down with trouble and doubt,
well my God sent Moses and he led them out.

Chorus:
My Lord will send a Moses to lead you out,
well if you will trust him as you wander about,
if you are burdened down with trouble don't doubt,
well my Lord will send a Moses to lead you out.

Verse: 2
We pilgrims now have started over the way,
to that fair land of rest of eternal day,
when those are failing brother pray on and shout,
well my Lord will send a Moses to lead you out.

Verse: 3
Satan is watching he is waiting around,
to find your spirit getting close to the ground,
well if you are struggling brother pray on and shout,
my Lord will send a Moses to lead you out.

I thought of another one.

Canaan Land

Verse: 1
Moses led God's children, forty years he led them,
thru the cold and thru the night, tho' they said lets turn back,
Moses said keep going, Canaan land is just in sight.

Chorus:
There will be no sorrow, there in that tomorrow,
we will be there by and by, milk and honey flowing,
that is where I'm going, Canaan land is just in sight.

Verse: 2
Tho' we walk thru valleys, tho' we climb high mountains,
we must not give up the fight, we must be like Moses,
we must keep on going, Canaan land is just in sight.
