[00:00.68]So back in Canaan the future looked rough
[00:04.52]Jacob's family were finding it tough
[00:08.01]For the famine has caught us unprepared
[00:11.65]We are thin
[00:12.49]We are ill
[00:13.38]We are getting scared
[00:15.32]It's enough to make anyone weep
[00:18.89]We are down to our very last sheep
[00:22.58]We will starve if we hang around here
[00:26.11]But in Egypt there's food going spare
[00:29.74]They've got corn
[00:30.76]They've got meat
[00:31.64]They've got fruit and drinks
[00:33.70]And if we have the time
[00:35.25]We could see the Sphinx
[00:37.19]So they finally decided to go
[00:40.83]Off to Egypt to see brother Jo
[00:49.92]So they all lay before
[00:51.63]Joseph's feet

[01:17.82]The corn gave me sign
[01:21.34]Your eleven sheaves of corn

[01:31.95]The sun the moon and sky
[01:35.76]Bowing down before my star
[01:39.01]And now I realise why
[01:43.32]How do I know where you came from
[01:45.65]You could be spies
[01:47.87]Telling me that you are hungry -
[01:50.23]That could be lies
[01:52.88]How do I know who you are
[01:57.14]Why do you think I should help you
[01:59.51]Would you help me
[02:01.73]Why on earth should I believe you

[02:34.46]Honesty's are middle name
[02:38.54]Life is slowly ebbing from us
[02:40.86]Hope's almost gone
[02:43.07]It's getting very hard to see us
[02:45.42]From sideways on
