History tells a story of a prince born of slaves
In a time when sorrow filled the air
From Pharaoh's death decree
His mother gave him to the river
To find his destiny
As he grew to manhood in a palace filled with gold
He could not endure the thought of slavery in his soul
Settin out to take a journey
With the truth locked deep within
He heard the words of wisdom
Floating on the desert wind
[Chorus:]
I'll be with you through the fire
Take My hand and part the sea
If you'll trust Me I will lead you
Lead you to your destiny
Heaven's magig staff put power in his hands
So he set his people free to lead them to a better land
Though troubles seemed to follow
And pursue him to the end
He found the strength he needed
When he heard the words again
[Chorus:]
Don't be deceived
This is more than just a story
If you believe
Heaven awaits you with all it's glory
When the odds are stacked against you
And you're tempted with dismay
Like the prince who heard the calling
You can hear Him say
Once upon a time in a kingdom far away History tells a story of a prince born of slaves In a time when sorrow filled the air From Pharaoh's death decree His mother gave him to the river To find his destiny As he grew to manhood in a palace filled with gold He could not endure the thought of slavery in his soul Settin out to take a journey With the truth locked deep within He heard the words of wisdom Floating on the desert wind [Chorus:] I'll be with you through the fire Take My hand and part the sea If you'll trust Me I will lead you Lead you to your destiny Heaven's magig staff put power in his hands So he set his people free to lead them to a better land Though troubles seemed to follow And pursue him to the end He found the strength he needed When he heard the words again [Chorus:] Don't be deceived This is more than just a story If you believe Heaven awaits you with all it's glory When the odds are stacked against you And you're tempted with dismay Like the prince who heard the calling You can hear Him say Explain Request ×
