Wonder where a mother finds it down in her heart
To take the thing that matters the most
Lay it in a basket at the side of the Nile
Set it on the water and let it go
Sister in the bulrush lifted a prayer
To the God who rules the tide
Cause he's the one, who delivered Moses
The one the winds and the waves obey
So even when it all seems hopeless
He's already got an answer for the prayer you prayed
It could happen in a moment or it could take awhile
Just give it to God and send it on down the Nile
Mother, father, sister, brother, strangers, and friends
Whatcha got that's weighing you down
Get yourself a basket and you put it all in
Set it on the river right in front of the Nile
Trust in the Lord he'll draw it from the water
In his good time
Cause he's the one, who delivered Moses
The one the winds and the waves obey
So even when it all seems hopeless
He's already got an answer for the prayer you prayed
It could happen in a moment or it could take awhile
Just give it to God and send it on down the Nile
Every worry send it on down
Every care send it on down
Every sorrow send it on down
Every fear send it on down
Cause he's the one, who delivered Moses
The one the winds and the waves obey
So even when it all seems hopeless
He's already got an answer for the prayers you pray
It could happen in a moment or it could take awhile
Just give it to God and send it on down the Nile
