lyrics

holy moses, when the bramble burned and smoked
could've been the voice of god, could've been the fire spoke
holy moses, did you stand on holy ground
did a tongue of flame articulate, did you just think you heard a sound

you didn't lead nobody home
holy moses, let my people go

holy moses, did you fear it a mistake
when the river turned to blood, when the rod became a snake
holy moses, could you still have thought it right
when he named his angel death and sent him winging in the night

you didn't lead nobody home
holy moses, let my people go

you're a baby in a basket
we're the children in their chains
we're the firstborn stricken in the night
and there’s blood smeared on the frame

holy moses, when you lifted up your arms
did it rattle your resolve, did you expect the sea to part
holy moses, could you still have called it grace
when he hid you in the cleft and he never showed his face

you didn't lead nobody home
holy moses, let my people go
