Marche, Israel
Eliane Silva
March, Israel
Moses looked up to the sky
And asked God
What will you do now
To save your people
Pharaoh's army
Is almost catching up
And there's no way to go forward
Because right in front is the sea
But Jehovah answered him
Use what you have in your hands
Touch the waters and do not fear
Command the crowd to march!
And then Moses touched the sea
Told the people to walk
Move forward without fear
This is the Lord's command!
March, Israel, march! The sea will part
March, Israel, march! Jehovah commands you to go
And that furious sea
In that instant calmed down
Water to one side and to the other
And split into two parts
All of Israel passed through on dry land
Not one of them was swallowed by the sea
But Pharaoh's army
In that sea, God drowned
March, Israel, march! The sea will part
March, Israel, march! Jehovah commands you to go
If the sea is in front of you
Trying to make you stop
And the enemy army
Is almost catching up to you
Do not worry, do not be afraid
For your God has already decreed
Touch the waters, march now
Your victory has arrived
March, Israel, march! The sea will part
March, Israel, march! Jehovah commands you to go
[Recitation]
Then the Lord said to Moses: Why do you cry out to me
Tell the people of Israel to march
You raise your rod and stretch out your hand over the sea
And divide it so that the children of Israel may pass through the middle of the sea
On dry land and behold I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians
So that they go in after them and I will be glorified
In Pharaoh and in all his army
And in his chariots and in his horsemen
And the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord
When I am glorified in Pharaoh
And in his chariots and in his horsemen
And in his chariots and in his horsemen!
March, Israel, march! Let the sea part
March, Israel, march! Jehovah commands you to go
March, Israel, march! Let the sea part
March, Israel, march! Jehovah commands you to go!
It's Jehovah! It's Jehovah! It's Jehovah! (march, march)
Oh Church, march, it's the Lord's command!
Keep fighting, keep winning
Keep marching, keep marching
Pharaoh will have to see that God is God
The sea will part, will part, will part
