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. |
Chorus |
Go down, Moses, |
Way down in Egypt’s Land. |
Tell ol' Pharoah, |
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. |
Chorus |
No more shall they in bondage toil, |
Let my people go, |
Let them come out with Egypt’s spoil, |
Let my people go. |
Chorus |
We need not always weep and mourn, |
Let my people go, |
And wear these slavery chains forlorn, |
Let my people go. |
Chorus |
Your foes shall not before you stand, |
Let my people go, |
And you’ll possess fair Canaan’s land, |
Let my people go. |
Chorus |
O let us all from bondage flee, |
Let my people go, |
And let us all in Christ be free, |
Let my people go. |
Chorus |
