Lyrics Go Down, Moses - Marian Anderson

Go Down, Moses

When Israel was in Egypt’s Land,
Let my people go,
Oppressed so hard they could not stand,
Let my people go.
Go down, Moses,
Way down in Egypt’s Land.
Tell ol' Pharaoh,
To let my people go.
Thus saith the Lord;
bold Moses said,
Let my people go,
If not, I’ll smite your first-born dead,
Let my people go.
Go down, Moses,
Way down in Egypt’s Land.
Tell ol' Pharaoh,
To let my people go.
