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.
Refrain:
Go down, Moses, way down in Egypt's land.
Tell old Pharoah, let my people go.
No more shall they in bondage toil, let my people go,
let them come out with Egypt's 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)
Then Miriam danced and sang her song, let my people go,
"Our God has triumphed over wrong!" let my people go.
(Refrain)
O, let us all from bondage flee, let my people go,
and let us all in Christ be free, let my people go.
(Refrain)
