paroles de chanson So Long, Moses - Andrew Peterson

So long, Moses
Hello, Promised Land
It was a long, long road
But your people are home
So long, Moses

Hello, Joshua
Goodbye, Canaanites
We're coming to town
Twelve tribes and no crown
No crown, O Lord

We want a king on a throne
Full of power, with a sword in his fist
Will there ever be, will there ever be a king like this?

Hello, Saul
First king of Israel
You were foolish and strong
So, you didn't last long
Goodbye, Saul

But hail, King David
Shepherd from Bethlehem
Set the temple of God
In mighty Jerusalem

He was a king on a throne
Full of power, with a sword in his fist
Has there ever been, has there ever been a king like this?
Full of wisdom, full of strength
The hearts of the people are his
Hear, O Israel, was ever there a king like this?

So hello, prophets
The kingdom is broken now
The people of God
They've been scattered abroad
For how long, O Lord?

So speak, Isaiah
Prophet of Judah
Can you tell of the One
This king who's going to come?

Will he be a king on a throne?
Full of power with a sword in his fist?
Prophet, tell us will there be another king like this?
Full of wisdom, full of strength
The hearts of the people are his
Prophet, tell us will there be
Another king like this?

And Isaiah said
He'll bear no beauty or glory
Rejected, despised
A man of such sorrow
We'll cover our eyes
He'll take up our sickness
And carry our tears
For his people
He will be pierced
He'll be crushed for our evils
Our punishment feel
And by his wounds
We will be healed
We will be healed
From you, O Bethlehem
Small among Judah
A ruler will come
Ancient and strong
From you, O Bethlehem
Small among Judah
A ruler will come
Ancient and strong
From you, O Bethlehem
Small among Judah
A ruler will come
Ancient and strong
From you, O Bethlehem
Small among Judah
A ruler will come
Ancient and strong
Ancient and strong
