Be Still Moses

She walks past the soldiers out in the street Stays to the side with her eyes on her feet She hardly makes a whisper, just barely a word And this was all the baby heard Be still Moses, don't make a sound Be still Moses, don't make a sound Be still Moses, don't make a sound Keep your head down Lying on the bank where the cool water flows A baby's crying for a mother that he'll never know She says the pharaoh wants you to die So I'm leaving you here if you're gonna survive Be still Moses, don't make a sound Be still Moses, don't make a sound Be still Moses, don't make a sound Keep your head down You're gonna be there when he parts the tide And leads all the people to the other side Climb that mountain by the lord's goodwill But right now boy you better be still Be still Moses, don't make a sound Be still Moses, don't make a sound Be still Moses, don't make a sound Keep your head down Be still Moses, don't make a sound Be still Moses, don't make a sound Be still Moses, don't make a sound Keep your head down Be still Moses, don't make a sound Be still Moses, don't make a sound Be still Moses, don't make a sound Keep your head down Keep your head down Keep your head down
