When You Believe: Music from 'The Prince of Egypt' Page #3

---

I said, enough!

You will regret

this night.

# Hush now, my baby #

# Be still, love

Don't cry #

# Sleep

as you're rocked #

# By the stream #

# Sleep and remember #

# My last lullaby #

# So I'll be with you #

# When you dream ##

Did you see him? It's Moses.

# Gleaming in the moonlight #

# Cool and clean

and all I've ever known #

# All I ever wanted #

# Sweet perfumes

of incense #

# And graceful rooms

of alabaster stone #

# All I ever wanted #

# This is my home #

# With my father

mother, brother #

# Oh, so noble

Oh, so strong #

# Now I am home #

# Here among my trappings

and belongings #

# I belong #

# And if anybody doubts it #

# They couldn't

be more wrong #

# I am a sovereign

prince of Egypt #

# A son of the proud history

that's shown #

# Etched on every wall #

# Surely this is all

I ever wanted #

# All I ever wanted #

# All I ever #

# Wanted ##

The Hebrews grew

too numerous.

They might have risen

against us.

Father, tell me

you didn't do this.

Moses,

sometimes,

for the greater good,

sacrifices must be made.

Sacrifices?

Oh, my son.

They were only slaves.

Moses?

Is this where

you found me?

Moses, please try

to understand.

So- So everything

I thought,

everything I am,

is a lie.

No.

You are our son,

and we love you.

Why did you choose me?

We didn't, Moses.

The gods did.

# This is your home

my son #

# Here the river

brought you #

# And it's here

the river meant #

# To be your home #

# Now you know

the truth, love #

# Now forget

and be content #

# When the gods

send you a blessing #

# You don't ask why

it was sent ##

Last night, the gods

granted me a vision.

I'm not merely going to restore

this temple, I will make it more grand,

more splendid

than any other one in Egypt.

Aah.

- Get up!

- Aah!

Moses! Look.

Fate has turned our little misadventure

into a great opportunity.

- Get up, old man!

- Father will be so pleased-

Put your back into it!

Faster!

This is &ust

the beginning.

A gateway will open to an entire

new city of white limestone,

more dazzling

than the sun.

And here, a statue of Hapi.

I said, hurry!

- ... two great column halls.

- Stop it!

- Somebody's got to stop this!

- There's nothing we can do.

Stop it.

Stop. Stop it!

- Leave that man alone!

- Moses!

Out of my way.

Out of my way. Move!

Who did this?

Up there! It's him.

Up there.

Moses!

Moses, what's going on?

Moses!

Moses!

- Moses!

- Let me go!

- No, wait. - You saw what happened.

I &ust killed a man.

We can take care

of that.

I will make it

so it never happened.

Nothing you can say

can change what I've done.

I am Egypt, the morning

and the evening star.

If I say day is night,
