_ [E] _ [B] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Well, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I have another _ _ story I want to tell you. _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ [B] _ _ Can I tell it? _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

_ [B] Somebody don't want to hear my story. _ _

_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Can I ask you one more time? _ _ _ _
Can I tell my story? _ _ _ _ _
Okay. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ I was _ _ _ reading [C#] the other day _ _ _ _
_ [E] about a man named Moses. _ _ _
_ _ [F#] I was reading while one day _ God [B] called Moses.
_ _ _ [B] _
Told him, said, Moses, _ _ _ I want you to go [E] down [B] _ in [E] Egypt land. _
_ [E] _ [B] I want you to tell old Pharaoh _ to [E] _ [B] let my people [E] go.
_ [B] _
And you know how that story goes.
Moses began _ [E] to kind of [B] question God.
Said, now, Lord, _ are you sure I'm the one? _ _ _
Said, you know, my tongue is a little tired and I don't 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 heartened [G#] and he wouldn't let those people go.
[B] _ _ Well, after God had brought self a plague _ upon the land of Egypt, _
he called Moses again. _ _ _ _
Said, Moses, I want you to go back _ _ [E] _ [B] 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] _
[B] And then, Moses, _ [E] I want you to tell [F#] your people,
_ I want them to kill a lamb.
_ [B]
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 [E] went on and told [B] 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 [E] land of Egypt.
[B] _ [E] All of the [B] first born in that land _ was killed. _
That [E] lets me know that [B] God moved.
_ _ [C#]
God moved at midnight.
_ _ [E] _ _
I got another story.
Can I tell that one? _ _ _
Talking about the five wise _ _ and the five foolish.
_ _ [B] _ [E] When they went out [B] _
[E] to wait on [B] the bridegroom.
_ And you know how that story goes, don't you?
_ _ [E] The foolish [B]
ran [E] out of all.
[B] _ [E] And the Bible said [B] 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 and old man Silas.
[E] _ [B] _ When they were bound _ down in [E] that Roman jail.
_ Didn't have nobody that could go to [B] their bed.
_ _ [E] Now, can I imagine just a little.
[B] _ _ I imagine old man Silas 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 think we ought to sing a song of prayer, prayer? _
And [B] you know how it is.
If you ever been in a situation [E] where you knew that [B] everything was going to be all right,
[E] but [B] somebody else was all [E] troubled and tore up [B] about it.
_ [E] _ _ See, Paul had been in Rome and Paul already knew that at midnight, _
all of the Roman guard was going [B] to sleep.
_ [E] But he knew that the guard he was going to call [B] on [E] never sleep.
[B] _
[E] So I imagine a little [B] bit again, when Paul looked back at Silas, [E] he told him,
[B] _ _ _ [E] Silas, [B] _
[E] oh Silas, [B] _ [E] let me tell [B] you what we're going to do.
We're going to wake [E] in the midnight [B] hour [E] when [B] all the Roman [E] guards [B] go to sleep.
We're going to wake [E] in the midnight [B] hour [E] when [B] it's just [E] Jesus, you [B] and me.
[C#m] Because he's the only _ one I know that can deliver, [C#] that save our [B] soul.
We're going to [E] wake in the [B] midnight [E] hour.
_ [B] We're going to wake in the midnight hour.
_ We're going to wake in _ the midnight [E] hour.
[B] We're going [E] to wake in [B] the midnight _ hour.
Sometimes I love to be in trouble.
_ Then again, I want to be all alone.
So I can talk to my heavenly father up in heaven on the throne.
I [C#m] can call him in the morning, noon and night, any time I call him.
[F#] _ _ _ [B] _ _ [E]
We're [B] going to wake in the midnight hour.
I'm going to wake in the midnight hour.
We're going to wake in _ the midnight _ _ [E] hour.
