[Hebrew Slaves] Mud... Sand... Water... Straw... [Egyptian Guards] Faster! [Hebrew Slaves] Mud...And lift Sand...And Pull Water...And raise up... Straw... [Egyptian Guards] Faster! [Hebrew Slaves] With the sting of the whip on my shoulder With the salt of my sweat on my brow Elohim, God on high Can you hear your people cry: Help us now This dark hour... Deliver us Hear our call Deliver us Lord of all Remember us, here in this burning sand Deliver us Theres a land you promised us Deliver us to the promised land... [Yocheved] Yal-di ha-tov veh ha-rach (My good and tender son) Al ti-ra veh al tif-chad (Dont be frightened and dont be scared) My son, I have nothing I can give But this chance that you may live I pray well meet again If He will deliver us [Hebrew Slaves] Deliver us Hear our prayer Deliver us From despair These years of slavery grow too cruel to stand Deliver us Theres a land you promised us Deliver us Out of bondage and Deliver us to the promised land... [Yocheved] Hush now, my baby Be still, love, dont cry Sleep as youre rocked by the stream Sleep and remember my last lullaby So Ill be with you when you dream River, o river Flow gently for me Such precious cargo you bear Do you know somewhere he can live free? River, deliver him there... [Young Miriam] Brother, youre safe now And safe may you stay For I have a prayer just for you: Grow, baby brother Come back someday Come and deliver us, too... [Hebrew Slaves] Deliver us Send a shepherd to shepherd us And deliver us to the promised land [Yocheved]
