Verse 1
While thro’ the sea by faith they past,
The sea retir’d at God’s command,
The waves shrink back with trembling haste,
The waves a chrystal barrier stand.
Verse 2
Th’ Egyptians daring to pursue,
With horror found a wat’ry grave,
Too late their want of faith they knew,
And sunk beneath th’ o’erwhelming wave.
