The Pesach Song by Steve McConnell
...
We're leaving.
Leaving Mitzraim.
To worship,
Our Holy King.
We follow
Our Redeemer-
And God leads us
To the Land He promised,
And we're leaving tonight.
10 times the pharaoh had his chance
And 9 times he said 'No'.
But now he's come to face the Power of God.
He begs for us to go...
400 years in slavery
To pharaoh and his throne
Are coming to a halt tonight;
Our God is coming to take us Home...
He requires of us a Sacrifice
For only blood atones...
And on the doorposts of our dwelling place;
It marks us as His Own.
This lamb that we have slain tonight,
Was offered in our place.
Staff in hand, we stand prepared to leave.
We must eat this meal in haste...
'Cuz we're leaving.
Leaving Mitzraim.
To worship,
Our Holy King.
We follow
Our Redeemer-
And God leads us
To the Land He promised,
And we're leaving tonight.
Now a 3 day journey faces us.
From ramses to Sukkot.
And from that moment, God is with us;
In clouds of fire and of smoke.
But pharaoh's army seeks our live,
And Moses lifts his holy hands-
We have Mikveh in the Sea of Reeds;
Leaving Egypt where they stand.
And we're leaving.
Leaving Mitzraim.
To worship,
Our Holy King.
We follow
Our Redeemer-
And God leads us
To the Land He promised,
And we're leaving tonight.
