COME, LET US SING Poem by Adam Small

Friends,
let us open up the Good Book
and read from it -
o Mos Holy Spirit
let these words go right t our heart -
from the secon book a Mosas
from Ex'dus,
fourth chapter, firs an secon verse -
o God
make for us with these words a light as that of candles! -

an Mosas answered an he said: but what
if they don b'lieve me, don take up my words
if they say the Lord didn't never appear t me at all?

but the Lord said: you shall lead your people
What is in your hand?
an Mosas said: a rod.

Now friends
twas all he had
this man o God
a rod
a great dead stick
an on top of that he was also a stamm'rer

but the Lord spoke with him at length
how with that stick he had stricken dead
the Egyptian
an Mosas let his great big head hang down
an
an sunly that selfsame rod was become a serpent!

Now friends
even unto me has the Lord brought
his wonderworks
he has asked me what is in my hand
an friends
in my hand is my guitar

come, let us sing
