Notes About The Poem

O' Sad of song My soul in remorse the piano plays in the dark I play melodies of freedom within in my heart. And my heart rejoices I hear the voices I play melodies in my heart of O' such a sad Song of Moses

Lamentation the Song of Moses

O such a sad song
Oh, sad song
My soul in remorse
The piano playin in the dark
As I play melodies in my heart
And my heart rejoices, I heard the voices of
Oh, sad song
The song of Moses playing in my heart
All the day long
He keeps promising, promising me that I'd
I be free
Oh, sad song
He never wrong my God
But I am myself is never right
the temple of the tabernacle of the living God
I find it odd, I cry out Savior
I say Lord master
Why must I heed this call
When will you deliver your children from their bondage
This refuge is too hard to hold on to
You part the ocean sea
When will I be forever free
And amidst the call
I've heard it all lamentations
As the father of creation brings above the law He created all
For honor for glory we do fall
Lamentation, down on out knees sing out joyous jubilee
I praise thee Father God
O such a sad song
Oh, sad song
My soul in remorse
The piano playin in the dark
As I play melodies in my heart
And my heart rejoices, I heard the voices of
Oh, sad song
Lamentations of Oh, sad song
The song of Moses
