(Hebrew slaves)
Mud! Sand! Water! Straw!
(Egyptian guards)
Faster!
(Hebrew slaves)
Mud! And lift! Sand! And pull
Water! And raise up! Straw!
(Egyptian guards)
Faster!

(Hebrew slaves)
With the sting of the whip on my shoulder,
With the salt of my sweat on my brow.
Elohim, God on high,
Can you hear your people cry?
Help us now, this dark hour.

Deliver us. Hear our call.
Deliver us. Lord of all, remember us,
Here in this burning sand.
Deliver us.
There's a land you promised us.
Deliver us to the promised land.


(Moses' mother)
ילדי הטוב והרך　　　　　Yaldi ha'tov ve harach
אל תירא ואל תפחד 　　　　　Al tira ve al tifchad
My son, I have nothing I can give
But this chance that you may live.
I pray we'll meet again,
If He will deliver us.

(Hebrew slaves)
Hear our prayer.
Deliver us from despair.
These years of slavery grow
Too cruel to stand.
Deliver us.
There's a land you promised us.
Deliver us out of bondage and
Deliver us to the promised land

(Moses' mother)
Hush now, my baby
Be still, love, don't cry.
Sleep as you're rocked by the stream.
Sleep and remember my last lullaby,
So I'll be with you when you dream.
River, o river, flow gently for me,
Such precious cargo you bear.
Do you know somewhere he can live free?
River, deliver him there.

(Moses' sister)
Brother, you're safe now
And safe may you stay,
For I have a prayer just for you,
Grow, baby brother,
Come back someday.
Come and deliver us too.

(Hebrew slaves)
Deliver us
Send a sheperd to sheperd us
And deliver us to the promised land.
