Pharaoh's army pursues, the Israelites flee
To the Red Sea's edge, their destiny
Moses lifts his staff, the waters part
A path through the sea, God's wondrous art
Deliverance at the sea, God's mighty hand
Leads His people to the promised land
The waters close, the enemy drowned
In joyful praise, their voices resound
Through the night, they walk on dry ground
Walls of water on either side abound
But Pharaoh's chariots, in pursuit they drown
God's deliverance, His people's crown
Deliverance at the sea, God's mighty hand
Leads His people to the promised land
The waters close, the enemy drowned
In joyful praise, their voices resound
A pillar of fire held back the foe
God's presence near, His strength to show
Through waves divided, their faith was tried
Yet safe they crossed to the other side
Deliverance at the sea, God's mighty hand
Leads His people to the promised land
The waters close, the enemy drowned
In joyful praise, their voices resound
Deliverance at the sea, a story retold
Of God's power and love, forever extolled
