Go Down Moses Lyrics

Go down, Moses, way down in Egypt's land

Tell old Pharoh

To let my people go.

When Israel was in Egypt land

Let my people go

Opressed so hard they could not stand

Let my people go 

Go down, Moses

way down in Egypt land

Tell old Pharoh

To let my people go.

Thus spoke the Lord, bold Moses said,

Let my people go

If not I'll strike your firstborn dead

Let my people go

Go down Moses 

Way doen in Egypt land

Tell old Pharoh

To let my people go

Go, go, go!

Go, go, go!

Let my people go!

Your foes shall not before you stand

Let my people go

And you'll posess fair Caanan's land

Let my people go

Go down moses 

way down in Egypt land

Tell old Pharoh

To let my people go

(Baritones and tenors)

Go down Moses

Tell old Pharoh

Go down Moses

Tell old Pharoh

Go down Moses

Tell old Pharoh

Go down Moses

Tell old Pharoh

(Add Altos and Soprannos)

Tell old Pharoh "let my people go" 

Tell old Pharoh "let my people go" 

Go down Moses

Way down in Egypt land

Tell old Pharoh

To let my people go!
