Lyrics:
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 old Pharoah,
Let my people go!
Thus saith the Lord, bold Moses said,
Let my people go!
If not I'll smite your firstborn dead,
Let my people go!
Refrain
No more shall they in bondage toil,
Let my people go!
Let them come out with Egypts spoil,
Let my people go!
Refrain
The Lord told Moses what to do,
Let my people go!
To lead the Hebrew children through,
Let my people go!
Refrain
