The Ten Commandments

G
Moses led God's children out to find
 the promised land


And on the way he'd stop each day 
and look to Heaven and

      C
Asked God for help as he could not 
withstand the task alone

    G
And then one day he looked away and 
thereby lay a stone


    D7
God said write upon this stone these
 words I say to you

    C
And if you all obey my rules I'll 
see you safely through

    D7
God opened Heaven's door and then He
 guided Moses' hands

    C                          
And then He said go and tell my 
          D7
children these are my commands


       G
Go and climb that mountain Moses 
climb that mountain now and pray


Climb that mountain now and tell us 
what our Lord has had to say


Thou shalt have no Gods before me is
 my great command


And thou shalt not make any graven 
image by thy hand


     C
Thou shalt not take My name in vain 
if thou would guiltless be

G
Moses showed these words of God to 
all the children then


They pulled up stakes and headed out
 to find the promised land

     C
That Moses had described to them and
 told of comforts there

    G
The children of oppression thought 
they'd not find anywhere


    D7
But they were soon to part from him 
and push alone awhile

    C
For it was never meant for him to 
walk that final mile

    D7
The children cried if we must go on 
Moses without you

C
