Go down Moses

Lois Armstrong

          Am   E       Am     Dm
  When Israel was in Egypt's land
   Am     E      Am
  Let my people go
         Am        E         Am         Dm
  O-o-ppressed so hard they could not stand
   Am     E      Am
  Let my people go

      Am    Dm     E7
  Go down, Moses, way down in Egypt's land
   Am        Dm      Am     E      Am
  Tell old Pharaoh, Let my people go


  Thus saith the Lord, bold Moses said
  If not, I'll smite your first-born dead.

  The Lord told Moses what to do
  To lead the children of Israel through.

  No more shall they in bondage toil,
  Let them come out with Egypt's spoil.
  Oh let us all from bondage flee,
  And let us all in Christ be free.
