Tune: | [When Israel was in Egypt's land] |
1 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!
2 No more shall they in bondage toil,
Let My people go!
Let them come out with Egypt's spoil,
Let My people go! [Refrain]
3 Oh, let us all from bondage flee,
Let My people go!
And let us all in Christ be free,
Let My people go! [Refrain]
4 You need not always weep and mourn,
Let My people go!
And wear these slav'ry chains forlorn,
Let My people go! [Refrain]
5 Your foes shall not before you stand,
Let My people go!
And you'll possess fair Canaan's land,
Let My people go! [Refrain]
