The Ballad of Moses and Pharaoh Lyrics

Treated like slaves, when Moses was born

And thrown in the Nile, like all Hebrew boys

But God made a way, and Moses was saved

A time for to come, when Pharaoh would pay

Oh he would pay

Oh, when God killed the babies

God killed the babies

God killed their children

And took all their gold

When God killed the babies

Those Egyptian babies

Pharaoh would let the Hebrews go

Frogs in the land, swarms in the sky

Livestock made low, but the Hebrews were fine

God brought the plague, and He rained down the hail

Followed with swarms, darkness prevailed

Oh, when God killed the babies

God killed the babies

God killed their children

And took all their gold

When God killed the babies

Those Egyptian babies

Pharaoh would let the Hebrews go

The Passover lamb, a sprinkling of blood

Spread o'er their doors, would save all their sons and daughters

The Angel of Death, came in the night

For all the firstborn, oh how they cried

When God killed the babies

God killed the babies

God killed their children

And took all their gold

When God killed the babies

Those Egyptian babies

Pharaoh would let the Hebrews go

Oh, when God killed the babies

God killed the babies

God killed their children

And took all their gold

When God killed the babies

Those Egyptian babies

Pharaoh would let the Hebrews go
