EXODUS – Let My People Go by Bro H

Verse 1 A cry went up from the brick and clay, Chains in the dust where the children lay, Whips cracked loud in a foreign land, Blood and sweat on a borrowed hand. They groaned by night, they toiled by day, But Yahweh heard what the slaves would pray. Pre-Chorus I saw the fire in the bush that burned, I heard the Name that the kings had spurned, I stand before you, crown and throne— Not in my strength, but the LORD alone. Chorus Let My people go, says Yahweh the King, Loose the captives, hear Heaven sing, I stretched out My hand, I broke your rod, You will know that I am God. Let My people go. Verse 2 I turned the river into blood, Darkened the sky with hail and flood, Frogs in the streets, lice in the land, Still you hardened your stubborn hand. From firstborn’s cry to the palace door, Egypt bowed like never before. Pre-Chorus 2 I made a line you could not cross, Between My people and your loss, By blood on the door, by the midnight cry, I passed them over as death passed by. Chorus Let My people go, says Yahweh the King, Loose the captives, hear Heaven sing, I stretched out My hand, I broke your rod, You will know that I am God. Let My people go. Verse 3 The sea stood up at My command, Walls of water, dry ground sand, You chased them down with chariots proud, But I rolled you back in the crashing cloud. Horse and rider, sunk like stone, The way stood clear for My own. Bridge (spoken or half-sung, low and solemn) Who is like You among the gods? Glorious in holiness, fearful in praise, Doing… You led Your people by strength, To the place You prepared. Verse 4 From Sinai’s fire, the mountain wonders shook, Law was written, no man mistook, Not by image, not by sword, But by every word of the LORD. I bore you out on eagle’s wings, A kingdom formed from wandering. Final Chorus (stronger, but restrained) Let My people go, says Yahweh the King, Out of bondage, learn to walk free, I broke the chains, I set the road, You are My people, I am your God. Let My people go. Outro Not by Pharaoh, not by man, But by My law you’ll learn to stand, From the house of slaves to the promised land— By the outstretched arm, By the great I AM
