Go down Moses
Way down in Egypt land,
Tell all Pharaoes to
Let My People Go !
When Israel was in Egypt land…
Let My People Go !
Oppressed so hard they could not stand…
Let My People Go !
So the Lord said: « Go down, Moses
Way down in Egypt land,
Tell all Pharaoes to
Let My People Go ! »
So Moses went to Egypt land…
Let My People Go !
He made all Pharaoes understand…
Let My People Go !
Yes the Lord said « Go down, Moses
Way down in Egypt land,
Tell all Pharaoes to
Let My People Go ! »
Thus spoke the Lord, bold Moses said :
« Let My People Go !
If not I’ll smite, your firstborn’s dead,
-Let My People Go ! »
God-The Lord said « Go down, Moses
Way down in Egypt land,
Tell all Pharaoes to
Let My People Go! »
Way down in Egypt land,
Tell all Pharaoes
To
Let My People Go.
