1 When Israel was in Egypt's land, Let my people go,
oppressed so hard they could not stand, Let my people go.
Chorus:
Go down, Moses, way down in Egypt's land,
tell old Pharoah: Let my people go.
2 The Lord told Moses what to do, Let my people go,
to lead the Hebrew children through, Let my people go. Chorus
3 As Israel stood by the waterside, Let my people go,
at God's command it did divide, Let my people go.
Chorus
4 When they had reached the other shore, Let my people go,
they let the song of triumph soar, Let my people go.
Chorus
5 Lord help us all from bondage flee, Let my people go,
and let us all in Christ be free, Let my people go.
Chorus
