_ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Well, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I have another _ _ story I want to tell you. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ [B] _ _ Can I tell it? _
_ [E] _ [B] _ _ _ [E] _ [B] _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [B] Somebody don't want to hear my story. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Can I ask you one more time? _ _ _ _
Can I tell my story? _ _ _ _ _
Okay.
_ _ _ [G#m] _ _ _
_ _ I was _ _ _ reading the other day _ _ about _ [E] a man named Moses. _ _ _
_ _ I was reading while one day _ _ God called Moses, _ _ _ _ told him, said, Moses, I _ want you to go [E] down
[B] _ in Egypt land. _
_ [E] _ [B] I want you to tell old Pharaoh _ to _ let my people go. _ _
And you know how that story goes.
Moses began [G#]
to [E] kind of [B] question God, said, now, Lord, _ are you sure I'm the one?
_ _ _ [B]
Say, you know, my tongue is a little tired and I [E] don't [B] speak real well.
[E] _ [B] _ Lord told him, said, Moses, _ _ all I want you to do is just go _ and I'll go with you.
_ Just open your mouth and I'll speak for you. _
Moses went on and told Pharaoh what the Lord had said.
[E] _ [B] But you know how that [E] story goes.
[B] _ _
Pharaoh was hard and [G#] he wouldn't let those people go.
[B] _ _ Well, after God had brought self a plague _ upon the land of Egypt, _ he [C#] called Moses again,
_ _ [B] _ _
said, Moses, I want you to go back _ and tell old Pharaoh.
[E] _ [B] _ If he [E] don't let my [B] people go, _ [E] _ [B] tell him there'll be a great cry in the land of Egypt.
_ _ Tell him that all of the first born in that [E] land [B] _ will be [E] killed. _ _
[B] And then Moses, _ [E] I want you to tell [B] your people, _ I want them to kill a lamb. _
I want [E] them to put the blood [B] on either side [E] of the doorpost.
[B]
So when the deaf angel come and see the blood, he'll [E] pass that door [B] by.
_ [E] _ _ [B]
Moses went on and told Pharaoh what he said. _
But he wouldn't let those [E] people go.
_ [B] _
[E] And the Bible [B] tells me _ it was [E] midnight [B] when there [E] came a great [B] cry in the land of Egypt.
_ [E] All of the [B] first born in that land _ was killed. _
That [E] lets me [B] know that God moved.
[E] _ _ [C#]
God moved at midnight.
_ _ [E] _ _ [B]
I got [E] another [B] story.
Can I tell that one? _ _ _
Talking about the fire wise _ _ and the time foolish [E] virgin.
_ [B] _ [E] When they went out [B] _
[E] to wait on [B] the bridegroom.
_ And you know how that story goes, don't you?
_ The [E] foolish [B]
ran [E] out of all.
_ And the Bible [B] said it was about midnight when somebody cried out, _ the bridegroom _ has come. _
_ [E] _ [B] I got one [E] more.
_ [B]
I [E] got one [B] more.
And then I'm going to leave you alone.
Talking about old man Paul [E] and [B] old man Siles.
[E] _ [B] _ When they were bound _ down in [E] that Roman [B] jail.
_ Didn't have nobody [E] that could go [B] there.
_ _ [E] [B] Now, can I imagine [E] just a little.
[B] _ _ I imagine old man Siles had been troubled ever since that jailer _ closed them doors.
_ [E] And I imagine after he had taken _ [B] all he could take, [E] he [B] looked at Paul and said,
_ _ _ _ Paul, [E] oh [B] Paul, _ [E] don't you [B] think we ought to sing a song [E] of prayer, prayer? _
And [B] you know how it is.
If you ever been in a situation [E] where [B] you knew [E] that [B] everything was going to be all right.
[E] But [B] somebody else was all [E] troubled and [B] tore up about it.
_ [E] _ [B] _ Paul had been in Rome and Paul already knew that at [E] midnight, [B] _
all of the [E] Roman guard was going [B] to sleep.
_ [E] But he knew that the guard he was going to call [B] on, never sleep. _
So I imagine a little bit again, when Paul looked back at Siles, he [E] told him,
[B] _ _ _ [E] Siles, [B] _
[E] oh Siles, [B] _ [E] let me tell [B] you [E] what [B] we're going to do.
We're going to [E] wait till the midnight hour.
When [B] all the Roman [E] guard [B] go to sleep.
We're going to wait [E] till the midnight [B] hour.
When it's just [E] Jesus, you [B] and me.
[C#m] Cause he's the only _ one I know that [F#] can [C#m] deliver, that [C#] save our [B] souls.
Let's wait [E] till the midnight [B] _ _ hour.
Let's wait till _ the midnight hour.
_ _ Let's wait till the midnight hour.
Can I say one more [E] thing?
_ [B] One more thing.
_ Sometimes I love to be in comfort.
_ Then again I want to be all alone.
So I can talk to my heavenly father up in heaven on his throne.
I [C#m] can call him in the morning, noon and night, anytime I call him.
[F#] _ _ _ [B] _ [E] Let's wait till the midnight [B] hour.
_ I'm going to wait till the midnight hour.
_ _ I'm going to wait till the midnight [E] hour.
