Oh, beautiful moon,
Sing me your song.
Make it slow and sweet if you can.
Oh, beautiful moon,
Don't worry 'bout the clouds in the sky,
'Cause they'll all wash away with time.
On this back porch singing praises.
When the smoke clears,
I'll see your faces.
Oh, beautiful moon,
Well, it's dark out tonight.
I thank God for giving you your light.
Oh, beautiful moon,
When you're all alone,
There's no stars. Where'd they all go?
Oh, the city lights, they hide your graces.
When the smoke clears,
I'll see your faces.
Oh...
On this back porch singing praises.
When the smoke clears,
I'll see your faces.
Oh, beautiful moon,
Sing me your song.
Make it slow and sweet if you can.
