Go Down, Moses

Go Down, Moses – Powerful Emotional Gospel Blues Worship Spiritual A bold, soul-stirring Emotional Gospel Blues Worship cry inspired by the timeless story of deliverance in Exodus. With raw, passionate vocals and gritty Delta blues slide guitar, this traditional spiritual powerfully retells Moses’ plea to Pharaoh: “Let my people go!” It echoes the deep longing for freedom from bondage — whether physical chains, sin, fear, or oppression — and points to the greater Deliverer, Jesus Christ.

Lyrics

Verse 1
When Israel was in Egypt’s land,
Let my people go;
Oppressed so hard they could not stand,
Let my people go.

Chorus
Go down, Moses,
Way down in Egypt’s land;
Tell old Pharaoh,
Let my people go.

Verse 2
Thus saith the Lord, bold Moses said,
Let my people go;
If not, I’ll smite your firstborn dead,
Let my people go.

Chorus
Go down, Moses,
Way down in Egypt’s land;
Tell old Pharaoh,
Let my people go.

Verse 3
No more shall they in bondage toil,
Let my people go;
Let them come out with Egypt’s spoil,
Let my people go.

Verse 4
O let us all from bondage flee,
Let my people go;
And let us all in Christ be free,
Let my people go.

Chorus (final)
Go down, Moses,
Way down in Egypt’s land;
Tell old Pharaoh,
Let my people go.
