let my people go.

let my people go;
at God's command it did divide,
let my people go.

let my people go;
they sang a song of triumph o'er,
let my people go.

let my people go;
a fire by night, a shade by day,
let my people go.

let my people go;
and you'll possess fair Canaan's land,
let my people go.

O let us on to Canaan go,
let my people go.

let my people go;
and let us all in Christ be free,
let my people go.
