CAway by the Griver so Cclear,
The Cladies were Gwinding their Cway,
And GPharaoh's little daughter stepped down in the water
To Cbathe in the Fcool of the Cday.
BeCfore it F/Cwas Cdark she Copened F/Cthe Cark
And found the sweet Ginfant was Cthere.
CAnd away by Gthe waterCs so blue,
The Cinfant was lGonely and sCad.
She tGook him in pity and thought him so pretty
And Cit made littFle Moses so Cglad.
ShCe called F/Chim Cher own, Cher beF/CautiCful son
And sent for a nurse Gthat was nCear.
CAnd away by the rGiver so cClear,
They Ccarried the Gbeautiful cChild,
To his Gown tender mother, his sister and brother,
LitCtle Moses looFked happy anCd smiled.
HiCs mother F/Cso Cgood done alCl that F/Cshe Ccould
To rear him and teacGh him with Ccare.
CAnd away by Gthe sea tChat was red,
LittCle Moses the Gservant of CGod,
While in hiGm confided, the sea was divided,
As Cupward he lFifted his Crod.
ThCe Jews safely F/CcroCssed whilCe PharaF/Coh's Chost
Was drownded in the Gwaters and Clost.
CAnd away on Gthe mountCain so high,
The Clast one thaGt ever might sCee,
While in his Gvictorious, his hope was most glorious
He'Cd soon o'er tFhe Jordan be Cfree.
WhCen his labor dF/Cid cCease, he Cdeparted iF/Cn peCace
And rested in the GHeavens abCove.
