Man Come Into Egypt

English Lyrics

There is a man come into Egypt and Moses is his name.
When he saw the grief upon us, In his heart there burned a flame.
In his heart there burned a flame, O Lord, In his hear there burned a
flame.
When he saw the grief upon us, In his heart there burned a flame.

There is a man come into Egypt, His eyes are filled with light.
Like the sun come up in Egypt, He's come to drive away the night.
Come to drive away the night, O Lord, Come to drive away the night.
Like the sun come up in Egypt, He's come to drive away the night.

There is a man come into Egypt, To stir the hearts of men.
We will follow him to freedom, Never wear those chains again.
Never wear those chains again, O Lord, Never wear those chains again.
We will follow him to freedom, Never wear those chains again.

There is a man come into Egypt, He's come for you and me.
On his lips a word is singing, And that word is li-ber-ty.
And that word is liberty, O Lord, And that word is liberty.
On his lips, a word is singing, And that word is liberty.
