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.
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 said 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 old Pharoah,
Let my people go.
Oh let us all from bondage flee
Let my people go
And let us all in Christ be free
Let my people go
Go down, Moses,
Way down in Egypt's land.
Tell old Pharoah,
Let my people go.
Go down, Moses,
Way down in Egypt's land.
Tell old Pharoah,
Let my people go.
