Bitter Springs to Big Trees Songtext
von Becky Buller

Up out of Egypt, through the Red Sea
One step ahead of pharaoh′s army
Three days of travel, two million sons and daughters said
What good is freedom without water

It's dry as a desert
But I know there′s a blessing further on
I'm gonna try to keep on prayin'
From Bitter Springs to Big Trees and beyond

At a place called Marah, hope began to sink
′Cause nothin′ there was fit to drink
Moses and the people cried out and gnashed their teeth
God showed them wood to make the water sweet


It's dry as a desert
But I know there′s a blessing further on
I'm gonna try to keep on prayin′
From Bitter Springs to Big Trees and beyond

He said, "If you will listen and heed what I reveal
You'll know no sickness. I′m the God Who Heals."
Then He led them to Elim, where they had all they could need
Twelve wells, three score and ten palm trees

It's dry as a desert
But I know there's a blessing further on
I′m gonna try to keep on prayin′
From Bitter Springs to Big Trees and beyond

It's dry as a desert
But I know there′s a blessing further on
I'm gonna try to keep on prayin′
From Bitter Springs to Big Trees and beyond
