The Song of Moses - Biblical

I will sing to the Lord, for he is gloriously triumphant;
horse and chariot he has cast into the sea.
My strength and my refuge is the Lord,
and he has become my savior.
This is my God, I praise him;
the God of my father, I extol him.
The Lord is a warrior,
Lord is his name!
Pharaoh's chariots and army he hurled into the sea;
the elite of his officers were drowned in the Red Sea.
The flood waters covered them,
they sank into the depths like a stone.
Your right hand, O Lord, magnificent in power,
your right hand, O Lord, shattered the enemy.
You brought them in, you planted them
on the mountain that is your own—
the place you made the base of your throne, Lord,
the sanctuary, Lord, your hands established.
May the Lord reign forever and ever!

The Song of Moses lyrics also known as the Canticle of the Sea celebrate God as a 'man of war' who has triumphed gloriously over the forces of Pharaoh. It is one of the oldest poetic passages in the Bible focusing on God�s strength and His role as the Savior of His people. By singing the Song of Moses lyrics the congregation remembers the definitive act of the Exodus seeing it as a precursor to the ultimate spiritual liberation found in Christ the Lamb who leads us out of the bondage of sin.
