Milk And Honey Lyrics - Pam Tillis

As the fireflies buzzed around him 

Like so many dancing stars 

God told all the angels from Jupiter to Mars 

 

There's a basket in the river 

Bearing something dear to me 

Embarking on a journey to fulfill his destiny 

 

A pretty maiden on the banks stood with open arms 

God put it in her heart 

To keep that baby safe from harm 

 

She said "Don't matter where you come from 

Now you belong to me" 

She was wise enough to know 

It was simply meant to be 

 

God was there in the firefly light 

At the angel's side 

And the maiden's heart as she played her part 

As she scooped him up, headed into town 

 

That's the way it all went down 

On the way to Holy Ground 

Milk and honey bound 

 

One night that little prince was tossed 

Into a stormy prophet's dream 

And it took a while for him to understand 

What he had seen 

 

When that boy became a man 

Those dreams they did transpire 

He wandered into the desert 

Where he talked to a bush of fire 

 

And a voice said 

"I'll be there, I'll be there, I'll be there with you 

Deliver my people out of Pharaoh's chains 

And I will see you through" 

 

God was there in the prophet's dream 

And the sparkling stream that flowed from the rock 

In the burning bush, on the mountain top 

 

All across that desert sand 

Fingerprints of the master's hand 

He cried out 'Pharaoh I'm headin' back to town' 

That's the way it all went down 

Milk and honey bound 

 

Yeah, I've come to lead my people out 

Milk and honey bound 

I've come to lead my people out 

I've come to lead my people out 

Milk and honey, milk and honey
