Anthem text
When Israel was in Egypt land,
let my people go!
Oppressed so hard they could not stand
let my people go!
Refrain
Go down, Moses,
way down in Egypt land.
Tell old Pharaoh
let me people go!
"Thus saith the Lord," bold Moses said:
let my people go!
"If not I'll smite your firstborn dead,"
let my people go!
Refrain
"No more shall they in bondage toil,"
let my people go!
"let them come out with Egypt's spoil,"
let my people go!
Refrain
