G                                     C          G                                                D7
Moses was born in a time of trouble, a day of bondage and sin
      G                                                           D                                       D7

For God’s great plan to deliver a nation, o’er Pharaoh the victory to win
              Em                   D              C                    G              Em               D              C

But before that great victory, a battle would rage, o’er who, would be in control
              G                                      C              G               D                    D7             G

So for eighty long years, God waited on Moses, to yield in both body and soul!

Verse 2
Alone in the desert, and far from the Lord, Moses thought, he was safe from his shame
While angry and bitter at all of God’s ways, a burning-bush called out his name
The Almighty, I Am, Jehovah, the Lord, still wanted, to use, this man
To bring God’s people, each one, out of Egypt, and into their Promised Land

Verse 3
At eighty years old, Moses faces ol’ Pharaoh, with naught in his hand but a rod
A nation was born, as it was delivered, by one man, trusting in God!
Now, guided by pillar of cloud and by fire, this nation, would follow God’s man
But Moses was guided by something unseen, fai-thfully led by God’s hand.

Verse 4
At Kadesh-barnea the people rebelled, to go back, to the life they once knew
Their constant complaining, drove Moses to God, to help him with what he should do
The choices he made at the bush and the Red Sea, they helped, to see his course through
A leader can’t lead without faith in his God - as with Moses it must be with you!

Verse 5 (step up)
    A                                             D                   A                                                 E7
In ev’ry man’s life, there’s a battle that’s raging, o’er who, will be in control
                    A                                        D                        A                   E                         E7
Whether “self” or the Saviour, the choice must be made, for a life, to finally be whole
      F#m                  E                D                 A                     F#m             E             D

It’s availed ev’ry day, as we humble ourselves, under God’s great un-seen hand
                    A                                             D                  A                        E                E7        A
Let’s then face all our Pharaoh’s with confidence growing, as we serve, the great I AM!
