Passover Us |
Well, we all remember Moses on the banks of the river |
He said «Pharaoh, you’ve got to let my people go |
You don’t want me to have to tell you this ten times over-- |
Denial ain’t just a river, you know» |
And we all remember Pharaoh, he just wouldn’t do it |
So the plagues they came upon Egypt one by one |
His heart was hard and the other nine just couldn’t move it |
So the last was the worst: the death of the firstborn son |
But the Lord, he gave to Moses a word for the people |
He said their firstborn sons would live to see another day |
«Put the blood of a lamb on the doorway and death will pass right over» |
That night all of the children of Israel prayed |
«Lord, let your judgment Passover us |
Lord, let your love hover near |
Don’t let your sweet mercy Passover us |
Let this blood cover over us here» |
So the years went by and the people they whined and they wandered |
And only sacrifice atoned for the sins of the land |
So you see the priest he placed upon the holy altar |
The body of a spotless lamb |
And he prayed |
