_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Well, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I have another story I want to tell you. _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ [B] _ _ Can I tell it? _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _ [B] _ _
_ [E] _ [B] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Somebody don't want to hear my story. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ [B] _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ [E] _ [B] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Can I ask you one more time? _ _ _
Can I [E] tell my [B] story? _ _ _ _ _
_ Okay.
_ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ I was _ _ _ reading the other day about _ _ _ _ a man named Moses. _ _ _
_ [E] _ [B] I was reading while one day _ God called Moses, _ _ [E] _ [B] _ _
[E] told him, said, [B] Moses, _ _ [E] _ [B] I want you to go [E] down
[B] _ in [E] Egypt [B] land. _
_ [E] _ [B] I want you to tell old Pharaoh to _ let my people [E] go.
_ [B] _
And you know how that story goes.
[E] Moses began [B] _
to kind of question God, said, now, Lord, _ _ are you sure I'm the one? _ _
Said, you know, my tongue is a little tired and [E] I don't [B] speak real well.
_ [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 he wouldn't let those people go.
_ _ Well, after God had brought Selma plague upon the land of Egypt, _ he called Moses again. _ _ _ _
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 [E] a great [B] cry in the land of Egypt.
_ Tell him that all of the first born in [E] that land _ [B] will be [E] killed.
[B] _ _
[E] And then Moses, [B] _ [E] I want you to tell [F#] your people, _ I want them to kill a lamb.
_ [B]
I [E] want them to put the blood [B] on either side [E] of the doorpost.
[B]
So [F#] when the deaf angel come and see the [B] blood, he'll [E] pass that door.
[B] But _ [E] _ _ [B] _
[E] Moses went on and [B] told Pharaoh what he said. _
But he wouldn't let those [E] people go.
[B] _
[E] And the [B] Bible 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 [E] moved at midnight.
[B] _ _ [E] _ _
I got another [B] story.
Can I tell that one? _ _ _
Talking about the five wise _ and the five 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?
_ _ [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 Saul.
[E] _ [B] _ When they were bound _ down in that Roman jail.
_ Didn't have nobody that could go there bail.
_ _ Now, can I imagine just a little.
I imagine old man Saul had been troubled ever since that jailer _ closed them doors.
_ [E] And [B] I imagine after he had taken [E] _ [B] all he could take, [E] he looked at Paul and told him, said,
_ _ Paul, _ _ oh [B] Paul, _ [E] don't you think we ought to [B] sing a song, [E] a prayer, [B] a prayer? _
And 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] trouble and tore up [B] about it.
_ [E] _ [B] _ See, Paul had been in Rome and Paul already knew that at [E] midnight, _ all of the Roman guard was going [B] to sleep.
_ [E] [B] But he knew that the guard [E] he was going to call [B] on, never sleep. _
So I imagine a little bit again, when Paul looked back at Silas, he [E] told him, [B] said,
_ _ [E] Silas, [B] _
[E] oh Silas, [B] _ [E] let me tell [B] you what we gonna do.
We gonna wake [E] in the midnight hour [E] when [B] all the Roman [E] guards [B] go to sleep.
[E] We [B] gonna wake [E] in the midnight [F#] hour [E] when it's [B] just Jesus, [E]
you [B] and [C#m] me.
Cause he's the only one I know that [F#] can [C#m] deliver, can [F#] save our [B] soul.
I will wait [E] till the midnight [B] _ _ [E] hour.
[B] I will wait till the midnight _ _ [E] hour.
[B] I will wait [E] till _ [B] the midnight [E] hour.
I [B] will [E] wait till the midnight [B] _ _ [E] hour.
[B] Sometimes I love to be in trouble.
_ And again I want to be all alone.
Though I can talk to my heavenly father up in heaven on his throne.
[C#m] I can call him in the morning, noon and night, anytime I call him.
[F#] Oh, it's all [B] right, but I'm gonna [E] wait till the [B] midnight.
I'm gonna wait _ _ _ till the midnight.
I will wait till the midnight.
I will wait till the midnight.
