Songs (pg 2): “The Ten Plagues”, “Ten Plagues on the Land”

Moses and the Ten Plagues

“The Ten Plagues”

(tune—”Trust and Obey”)

Down in Egypt one day

Moses spoke to Pharaoh,

“God has sent me His people to lead.

Let them leave from this land

Where they’ve been for so long;

Let them go, let them go, today.”

Pharaoh said, “No!”

They cannot go!”

And so God sent ten plagues

Upon Egypt and Pharaoh.

First the rivers to blood,

Then the plague of the frogs,

Next the lice, then the flies, then murrain.

Then cam boils, then cam hail’;

Locusts brought by the wind,

Then a darkness that covered the land.

The tenth plague was worse;

It brought death to the land.

And so Pharaoh told Moses,

“Take your people and go!”

“Ten Plagues on the Land”

(tune—”Ten Little Indians”) by the teachers at Monta Vista church of Christ

One plague, two plagues, three plagues on the

land,

Four plagues, five plagues, six plagues on the

land,

Seven plagues, eight plagues, nine plagues on the

land,

Ten plagues on the land.

First came blood in the Nile,

Second came frog by the mile,

Third came lice for awhile,

These were the plagues on the land.

Number four was buzzing flies;

Fifth the Pharaoh’s livestock dies;

Sixth came boils of every size;

These were the plagues on the land.

Number seven was fire and hail;

Eighth came locust over hill and dale;

Ninth came darkness like a veil;

These were the plagues on the land.

The saddest plague was the first-born died.

Pharaoh’s people cried and cried;

Pharaoh let God’s people go

Because of the plagues on the land.

Moses and Aaron came to Pharaoh and asked him to

let the people of Israel to Mt. Horeb to worship God.
