Melody - Harry Thacker Burleigh, 191? (1866-1949)

1. When Israel was in Egypt´s Land:
Let my people go.
Oppress´d so hard they could not stand,
Let my people go.

Refrain:
Go down Moses
´way down in Egypt´s land
Tell ol´ Pharaoh,
Let my peoples go.

2. Thus saith the Lord, bold Moses said:
Let my people go.
If not I´ll smite your firstborn dead,
Let my people go.
Refrain:

3. O let us all from bondage flee;
Let my people go.
And let us all in Christ be free!
Let my people go.
Refrain:
