A ballad, with poetry by Fanchon Shur:
And when Moses came to Choreiv, the mountain of God,
Tumbling low, tumbling high, tumbling run,
Tumbling sheep in mountain's morning sun.
Fleeting far, fleeting near, water blue,
fleeting waking shaking morning dew.
And God spoke unto Moses: "Moses, Moses, here am I."
Tumbling low, tumbling high, tumbling run,
Tumbling sheep in mountain's morning sun.
Fleeting far, fleeting near, water blue,
fleeting waking shaking morning dew.
And when Moses heard God's voice, he hid his face and shed his shoes.
Fleeting far, fleeting near, water blue,
fleeting waking shaking morning dew.
Out of the flames God spoke to Moses:
"Bring forth my people from Egypt's land."
And Moses said unto God:
"Who am I that I should go unto Pharoah and bring forth my people,
And in whose name shall I command them to go?"
Tumbling low, tumbling high, tumbling run,
Tumbling sheep in mountain's morning sun.
Fleeting far, fleeting near, water blue,
fleeting waking shaking morning dew.
"Tell unto my people that I am their God,
God of their fathers and mothers forever,
Go, Oh go!"
Tumbling low, tumbling high, tumbling run,
Tumbling sheep in mountain's morning sun.
Fleeting far, fleeting near, water blue,
fleeting waking shaking morning dew.
Moses went to shake morning dew.
