(A minor) (G major) (E minor) (G major) (A minor) (G major) They grew
(A minor) tired of bread
from heaven and of (E minor) Moses and of God

of slavery once (E minor) again (A minor)

(A minor) sank deep (E minor) er into sin (A minor)

to (A minor) write upon their hearts
The (G major) lesson they had been (F major) so slow to (A minor) learn

the fiery ser (A minor) pents came to call
With a (G major) holy message (F major) and
