TEXT
"GO DOWN, MOSES"
Traditional
Go down, Moses, way down in Egypt's land,
Tell old Pharaoh to let my people go.
When Israel was in Egypt's land,
Let my people go,
Oppressed so hard they could not stand,
Let my people go.
Thus saith the Lord, bold Moses said,
Let my people go,
If not I'll smite your firstborn dead,
Let my people go,
"I'VE BEEN IN THE STORM SO LONG"
Traditional
I've been in the storm so long,
Oh, give me little time to pray.
Oh when I get to heaven, I'll walk all about,
Oh, give me little time to pray.
There'll be nobody there to turn me out,
Oh, give me little time to pray.
