OH, LORD! CARE FOR MY BROTHER (Tune: Good-Bye, My Little Lady) |
I'm hiding here among tall reeds, I'm watching o'er my brother. Safe in an ark of pitch and reed Prepared by my dear mother. I want to see what happens now; He's precious to my family, I'll do my best, I'm standing guard; I'm watching him so caref'lly. Oh round and round and up and down The ark floats on the river. When Pharaoh's daughter comes today, We hope she'll him deliver! (Part Two) Oh Lord, care for my brother! He is beloved to us! Keep Pharaoh's army away Lord, Hide him in the bulrush. You gave this babe to our fam'ly, Hear now our prayer and our plea! |
