In foreign land
Yonder the red sea
In the nile valley
Lies the place where I was born

My brethern enslaved
By pharaoh's orders
Affliction and pain
Children of israel

Hear pharaoh now what we say: Let us go!
God's on our side you shall obey, let us go!

Better you not
Ignore our words
For you don't want to learn
Lessons I give you with my rod

Hear pharaoh now what we say: Let us go!
God's on our side you shall obey, let us go!

In God we trust
Him we will woship
He will redeem us
Always he keeps the covenant
