Lyrics:


The Lord is our strength and our song.  He has broken us free.
The horses and riders are gone.  They have drowned in the sea.
With a breath from His lips the waters were raised.
Our Lord is a warrior.  His name will be praised.

Deliverance, deliverance
In bondage we were slaves.
Deliverance, deliverance
By God’s right hand, He saves.

Our Passover lamb has been slain.  He has spared us our lives.
His blood on our doorpost He gave, He was our sacrifice.
And on the third day He was raised from the dead,
Where once He wore thorns, now a crown on His head.

We once were rejected, now we’re received
We once were rebellious, now we’re redeemed
We once were resistant, now we rejoice
Listening for the sound of His voice


Song by: Sue Samuel
