Moses Now and Beyond

(Sung to the tune of "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" by the Beatles)

Picture yourself on dune in the Sinai
Covered in sand, and sun in your eyes
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,
A man who's as brave as is wise.

Towering mountains of yellow surround
Hovering over your head
Look for the man with G-d's light in his eyes, he’s the one.

Moses now and beyond
With him we’re never despondent
Guided like the sky with diamonds
Ahhhhhhhhh

Follow him down to a camp by the mountain
Where thousands of people on manna survive.
Everyone smiles as he walks up the mountain
That span so incredibly high.

Higher and higher as he ascends
Eager to bring back the Laws
Climbing up high with his head in the clouds and he's gone.

Moses now and beyond
With him we’re never despondent
Guided like the sky with diamonds
Ahhhhhhhhh

Picture yourself waiting down by the mountain
Waiting and praying until he arrives.
Suddenly appearing, he’s holding two Tablets
The man who's incredibly wise.

Moses now and beyond
With him we’re never despondent
Guided like the sky with diamonds
Ahhhhhhhhh
