When Is­ra­el was in Egypt’s land,
Let My people go,
Oppressed so hard they could not stand,
Let My peo­ple go.

Refrain

Go down, Mo­ses,
Way down in Egypt’s land,
Tell old 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.

Refrain

No more in bond­age shall they toil,
Let My peo­ple go,
Let them come out with Egypt’s spoil,
Let My peo­ple go.
