The Oak Ridge Boys - Led Out Of Bondage lyrics

God promised to lead His children out of bondage He said He'd free them from Pharaoh's evil hand He said He'd guide and protect them on their journey And lead them to the promised land God's children were slaves in Egypt land So God took Moses by the hand, He said Moses, tell old Pharaoh to set 'em free But Moses wanted, wanted a way to get out Because in his mind he's beginning to doubt And he said, Lord, old Pharaoh, he ain't gonna listen to me Now the Lord said, Son, throw down that rod Old Moses did and he cried to God Because it turned to a snake as evil and wicked as sin Then he cried again with an awful wail And the Lord said, Seize him by the tail Old Moses did and it turned to a rod again Well, the Lord said, Moses, I've got power And I'll be with you every hour Said, Go tell Pharaoh to set My children free Well, Moses did but the Lord helped out He sent a plague to the land about So old Pharaoh told him he could go and let him be Well, they started out with a cloud that day And a fire by night to lead the way But old Pharaoh suddenly decided to change his mind So he gathered together his soldier band Got all them chariots throughout the land Said, I'll let them Israelites go some other time Well, they came to the banks of the old Red Sea Turned to Moses and started to plea And Moses fell on his knees and there in the sand The Lord said, Moses, trust in God 'Cause all ya gotta do is just raise that rod And over these mighty waters stretch your hand Well, Moses followed the Lord's command The waters parted and there in the sand They saw a path that led to the other shore Well, the ground was dry and they pa**ed on through And old Pharaoh's army thought they would too But the waters fell, they ain't never been seen no more
