Oh Mary Dont You Weep - Nat King Cole Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro]

[Chorus: Nat King Cole, The Church of Deliverance Choir]
Oh, Mary, don't you weep, don't you mourn
Oh, Mary, don't you weep, don't you mourn
Pharaoh's army got drownded
Oh, Mary, don't you weep
Oh, Mary, don't you weep, don't you mourn
Oh, Mary, don't you weep, don't you mourn
Pharaoh's army got drownded
Oh, Mary, don't you weep

[Verse 1: Nat King Cole]
The way of evil doing is wide and fair
And many are they who perish there

[Refrain: Nat King Cole & The Church of Deliverance Choir]
Pharaoh's army got drownded
Oh, Mary, don't you weep

[Verse 2: Nat King Cole]
There was a man who came on Earth to save
Through Him we stem the tide of tribulations wave

[Refrain: Nat King Cole & The Church of Deliverance Choir]
Pharaoh's army got drownded
Oh, Mary, don't you weep
[Verse 3: Nat King Cole]
Now, Moses took the people by the hand
And led them all to the promise land

[Refrain: Nat King Cole & The Church of Deliverance Choir]
But
Pharaoh's army got drownded
Oh, Mary, don't you weep

[Verse 4: Nat King Cole]
The Red Sea parted for Moses's throne
But when King Pharoah tried to follow along

[Refrain: Nat King Cole & The Church of Deliverance Choir]
Well
Pharaoh's army got drownded
Oh, Mary, don't you weep

[Chorus: Nat King Cole, The Church of Deliverance Choir, Both]
So, we're telling you
Oh, Mary, don't you weep, don't you mourn
Oh, Mary, don't you weep, don't you mourn
Pharaoh's army got drownded
Oh, Mary, don't you weep
Oh, Mary, don't you weep, don't you mourn
Oh, Mary, don't you weep, don't you mourn
Pharaoh's army got drownded
Oh, Mary, don't you weep
[Outro: Nat King Cole, The Church of Deliverance Choir]
Oh, Mary, don't you weep
Oh, Mary, don't you weep
Oh, Mary, don't you weep
