Exodus

King of Egypt ordered to all the mid wives

Hebrew woman daughters live and sons will die

Moses helped filled the troughs to water

Of the seven daughters invited to eat bread with their father

Out of the desert under the hot sky

Sand burning feet hearing people's cry

A bush on fire but not consumed

Deliver my people from Egypt I'm here to send you

What's that in thine hand cast to the ground it went

The rod from the power of God became a serpent

Pharaoh's heart harden with a stone cold stare

Plagues rained down but he didn't care

The waters turned bloody frogs leaped on the land

Still his fist gripped tight on the weary hand

Red sea parted walls of water stood tall

We walk through freedom heard the chains fall

Pharaoh's pride sank with his army in the tide

We danced on the shore joy couldn't hide

Manna fell from heaven in the wilderness bare

Still hearts of stone filled with doubt and despair

Golden idols rose as the mountain quaked

A covenant carved but the truth was fake

Let my people go free across the wild sea

Break these chains that bind to capacity

With a pillar of fire and a cloud in the day

We'll chase freedom’s light to a promised stay

Through desert vast and wild we tread

Leaving behind the chains we shed

A pillar of fire led the way

A promise whispered to a brighter day

Mountains quake as the thunder roars

His voice etched laws on stone doors

Golden idols fell to dust

A holy rage broke fragile trust

He sent us manna starry night

A taste of hope in hunger’s fight

Promises carved by fire above

Guided us with his endless love

Through plagues of darkness rivers red

Through cries of anguish tears we shed

We walked in faith though weak the soul

With him above we are made whole

Rise up now and claim the sky

The seas will part though waves stand high

With freedom's wind on our face

We march as one to a boundless grace
