Lyrics
VERSE 1
ON THE MOUNTAIN OF OUR GOD MOSES STOOD ON HOLY GROUND
FROM THE FLAMES OF A BURNING BUSH CAME A MIGHTY SOUND
JEHOVAH GOD SENT MOSES TO STAND BEFORE PHAROAH
SAYING LET MY PEOPLE GO
(CHORUS #1)
WE HAVE BEEN MADE FREE BY THE POWER OF OUR GOD THE LORD OUR KING
DELIVERED FROM THE CHAINS OF OUR ENEMY - WE ARE THE REDEEMED
VERSE 2
THOUGH THE THUNDER OF TEN THOUSAND HORSES WE HEAR
ALMIGHT GOD IS WITH US AND WE SHALL NOT FEAR
THE SWORD AND THE SPEAR WILL FALL TO THE GROUND
FOR THE ANGEL OF THE LORD WILL CAST THEM DOWN
VERSE 3
HE WHO MADE THE ANCIENT SUN BURNING BRIGHT IN THE SKY
PROTECTS US WITH A MIGHTY SHIELD OF HIS HOLY FIRE
WITH THE WIND OF HIS BREATH HE HAS PARTED THE SEA
AND HIS CHILDREN ARE SET FREE
(REPEAT CHORUS #1)
VERSE 4
BY THE BLOOD OF OUR GOD THE MIGHTY PRINCE OF LIFE
JESUS CRUSHED THE POWER OF DEATH BY THE HOLY SACRAFICE
THE SALVATION OF THE LORD FOREVER WE WILL SING
WE ARE THE REDEEMED
(CHORUS #2)
WE HAVE BEEN MADE FREE BY THE POWER OF THE BLOOD OF CHRIST OUR KING
DELIVERED FROM THE CHAINS OF OUR ENEMY
WE ARE THE REDEEMED (REPEAT)
WE ARE THE REDEEMED
