Prince of Egypt Medley

With the sting of the whip on my shoulder
With the salt of my sweat on my brow
Elohim, God on high
Can you hear your people cry
Help us now
This dark hour
Deliver us (deliver us)
Hear our call
Deliver us (deliver us)
Lord of all
Remember us, here in this burning sand
Deliver us (deliver us)
There's a land you promised us (you promised us)
Deliver us to the promised land
Gleaming in the moonlight
Cool and clean and all I've ever known
All I ever wanted
Sweet perfumes of incense
Graceful rooms of alabaster stone
All I ever wanted
Now I am home
Here among my trappings and belongings
I belong
And if anybody doubts it
They couldn't be more wrong
I am a sovereign prince of Egypt
A son of the proud history that's shown
Etched on ev'ry wall
Surely this is all I ever wanted
All I ever wanted
All I ever wanted
(Thus saith the Lord, Thus saith the Lord)
Since you refuse to free my people
(Thus saith the Lord, Thus saith the Lord)
All through the land of Egypt
I send a pestilence and plague
Into your house, into your bed
Into your streams, into your streets
Into your drink, into your bread
Upon your cattle, on your sheep
Upon your oxen in your field
Into your dreams, into your sleep
Until you break, until you yield
I send my scourge, I send my sword
Let my people go (thus saith the Lord)
I will not let (let my) your people go
Lai-la-lai-lai-lee-lai-lai
Lai-lai-lai-lai-lai
La-lai-lai-lai-lai-lai-lee-lai-lai
A lake of gold in the desert sand
Is less than a cool fresh spring
And the one lost sheep, a shepherd boy
Is greater than the richest king
If a man loses everything he owns
Has he truly lost his worth?
Or is it the beginning
Of a new and brighter birth?
No life can escape being blown about
By the winds of change and chance
And though you never know all the steps (all the steps)
You must learn to join the dance
You must learn to join the dance
Lai-la-lai-lai-lee-lai-lai
Lai-lai-lai-lai-lai
La-lai-lai-lai-lai-lai-lee-lai-lai
Lai-lai-lai-lai-lai-lai-lai-lai
Lai-la-lai-lai-lee-lai-lai
Lai-lai-lai-lai-lai
La-lai-lai-lai-lai-lai-lee-lai-lai
Lai-lai-lai-lai-lai (lai-lai-lai-lai)
So how do you judge what a man is worth
By what he builds or buys?
You can never see with your eyes on earth
Look through heaven's eyes (look through heaven's eyes)
Look at your life (look at your life)
Look at your life (look at your life)
Look at your life through heaven's eyes
Lai-la-lai-lai-lee-lai-lai
Lai-lai-lai-lai-lai
Many nights we've prayed
With no proof anyone could hear
In our hearts a hopeful song
We barely understood
Now we are not afraid
Although we know there's much to fear
We were moving mountains long before we knew we could
There can be miracles
When you believe (when you believe)
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill (it's hard to kill)
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve (you can achieve)
When you believe
Somehow you will
You will when you believe
A-shir-ra I'a-do-nai ki ga-oh ga-ah
A-shir-ra I'a-do-nai ki ga-oh ga-ah
Mi-cha-mo-cha ba-e-lim adonai
Mi-cha-mo-cha ne-dar-ba-ko-desh
Na-chi-tah v'-chas-d'-cha am zu ga-al-ta
Na-chi-tah v'-chas-d'-cha am zu ga-al-ta
A-shi-ra, a-shi-ra, A-shi-ra
There can be miracles
When you believe (when you believe)
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill (it's hard to kill)
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve (you can achieve)
When you believe
Somehow you will
Now you will
You will when you believe
When you believe
You will when you (you will) believe
Yal-di ha-tov veh ha-rach
Al ti-ra veh al tif-chad
My son, I have nothing I can give
But this chance that you may live
I pray we'll meet again
If He will deliver us
Deliver us
Hear our prayer
Deliver us (deliver us)
From despair
These years of slavery grow
Too cruel to stand
Deliver us (deliver us)
Send a shepherd to shepherd us
And deliver us to the promised land
Deliver us to the promise land
Deliver us
