Deliver Us

<p>Being inspired by the Bible study about the life of Moses, Brian and Chris would like to revisit a musical movie released 2 decades ago, “<strong>The Prince of Egypt</strong>”. In this new series, the episodes will be focusing on the encouragement from the songs of this musical.</p> <p>“Deliver Us” is the song that helped us to picture the hardships Israelites faced at that time. Even we are not under slavery nowadays, every disciple still need God’s help and deliverance in certain degree. We hope that this song will remind you that our God is aware of our hardship and being with us during our suffering.</p> <p><br></p> <p><u><strong>出埃及記 Exodus 3:7<br> </strong></u>耶和華說：「我已經看見我子民在埃及所受的苦難，聽見了他們因監工的壓迫而發出的呼求。我知道他們的痛苦。<br> The Lord said, “I have indeed seen the misery of my people in Egypt. I have heard them crying out because of their slave drivers, and I am concerned about their suffering.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Song: <strong>Deliver Us<br> </strong>Artist: <strong>Ofra Haza, Eden Riegel<br> </strong>Songwriters: <strong>Schwartz Stephen Lawrence<br> </strong>Video is available at https://youtu.be/s2A3LaYDlHM</p> <p><br></p> <p><u><em>Lyrics<br> </em></u>Mud!<br> Sand!<br> Water!<br> Straw!<br> Faster!</p> <p>Mud and lift!<br> Sand and pull!<br> Water and raise up!<br> Straw!<br> Faster!</p> <p>With the sting of the whip on my shoulder<br> With the salt of my sweat on my brow<br> Elohim, God on high, can you hear your people cry?<br> Help us now<br> This dark hour</p> <p>Deliver us<br> Hear our call, deliver us<br> Lord of all, remember us<br> Here in this burning sand</p> <p>Deliver us<br> There's a land You promised us<br> Deliver us to the Promised Land</p> <p>ילדי הטוב והרך (My good and tender son)<br> אל תירא ואל תפחד (Don’t be frightened and don’t be scared)</p> <p>My son, I have nothing I can give<br> But this chance that you may live<br> I pray we'll meet again if He will<br> Deliver us (deliver us)</p> <p>Hear our prayer, deliver us<br> From despair, these years of slavery<br> Grown too cruel to stand</p>
