Nana Mouskouri — Go Down Moses lyrics

Lyrics

When Israel was in Egypt’s land
Let my people go Oppressed so hard they could not stand
Let my people go Go down, Moses, way down in Egypt’s land
Tell old Pharaoh, Let my people go So Moses went to Egypt’s land
Let my people go To make old Pharaoh understand
Let my people go Thus spake the Lord, bold Moses said,
«Let my people go,
If not, I’ll strike your first born dead
«Let my people go»
