Get Away
Slaves to the man
In the ruthless desert sun
80 years back
Our whole world came undone
The baby boys were in danger
Our human hope became a stranger
We got more work
When Moses came to town
The Pharaoh's taskmasters
Beat us down
But Moses ain't bowing
To his crown
That crown wasn't able
To make him drown
We are here
Not to stay
We are here
To get away
God's plagues punched
Egypt's gods in the mouth
Frogs, hail, blood to water
From north to south
Descended the Angel of Death
All firstborn sons lost their breath
Lamb's blood on the door
Allowed us to skip town
Pharaoh & his army
Chased us down
To the Red Sea
Where we thought we'd drown
But God displayed Power
Beyond renown
He split the Red Sea
And we parted ways
From Egypt
He let us get away
We are here
Not to stay
We are here
To get away
We are here
Not to stay
We are here
To get away
We got more work
When Moses came to town
The Pharaoh's taskmasters
Beat us down
But Moses ain't bowing
To his crown
That crown wasn't able
To make him drown
We are here
Not to stay
We are here
To get away
We are here
Not to stay
We are here
To get away
We are here
Not to stay
We are here
To get away
I teach and coach kids
In the public schools
Many of them are guided
By blinded fools
But God opens doors to share Christ's Love
And helps these kids look above
Christians got work
To do around our towns
Satan's lies got a lot
Of people bound
But their chains
Will fall to the ground
When they bow down
To Christ's crown
We are here
Not to stay
We are here
To get away
In the ruthless desert sun
80 years back
Our whole world came undone
The baby boys were in danger
Our human hope became a stranger
We got more work
When Moses came to town
The Pharaoh's taskmasters
Beat us down
But Moses ain't bowing
To his crown
That crown wasn't able
To make him drown
We are here
Not to stay
We are here
To get away
God's plagues punched
Egypt's gods in the mouth
Frogs, hail, blood to water
From north to south
Descended the Angel of Death
All firstborn sons lost their breath

Allowed us to skip town

Chased us down
To the Red Sea
Where we thought we'd drown
But God displayed Power
Beyond renown

And we parted ways
From Egypt
He let us get away
We are here
Not to stay
We are here
To get away
We are here
Not to stay
We are here
To get away
We got more work
When Moses came to town

Beat us down
But Moses ain't bowing

That crown wasn't able
To make him drown
We are here
Not to stay
We are here
To get away
We are here
Not to stay
We are here
To get away
We are here
Not to stay
We are here
To get away

Will fall to the ground
When they bow down
To Christ's crown
We are here
Not to stay
We are here
To get away
