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 |
