Escape To Egypt

Angel I'm going to throw this out to you The child's impending death is due And Herod is the fiend who will Send many men to find and kill There's no way to stop this man Get away far as you can Egypt seems the place to be Gather all for you must flee Joseph It's been revealed within a dream Young Jesus is part of a scheme And though he's only two years old His death has truly been foretold To Egypt we must make our way No time to to hesitate this day No time to take too much with us Just grab the child, don't make a fuss We'll fly by night to flee this threat We will escape this danger yet We'll find ourselves a nomad group And beg to join them in their troop Silently, we'll whisk away Move by night, and not by day Many miles to travel still Safety insured by God's will
