EXIT
Ry IT. A. HALL


Contributed TO my Friend. Elder Samuel c.
Evans and His Bible Glass. Presby-
terian Church. Milford
To please old Pharaoh and his driving horde
And their cries went up to the gate OF
Heaven
deliverer then to them was given. ZEN 3sD
Though Pharaoh their exit tried to retard.
But God was mighty with them to prevail
For His promise TO His people Just couldn't
fail,
At the burning bush He said He would. CEx.
But Moses did not seem to think He could.
And set up quite dismal wall.
He tried his best to kick and balk.
BY telling the Lord he could not talk.
But his brother Aaron then was coming up
the road.
To do the talking the best he could.
Already the Lord knew that he would
For We find him willing to take his part OF
the load.
So down into Egypt the two of them went
As messengers OF God on duty bent,
To set Gods chosen people free.
Like Jesus. who came down 10 this earth
Tho born in a manger, of lowly birth,
To deliver you and me.
But Pharaoh would not let the people go lex
1922
Moses did not say told you so.
But started right in TO his rod.
As he told to do when he talked with
God
And with plaques a plenty to bestow.
So Pharaoh decided he had better give up,
And let the Lords people go dine and sup.
Over in the Wilderness Of Sin
So God sealed the people with the seal Of
blood. (EX. l222D
And went on ahead to drive back the food
~ 81 aA Cau Nar
But Pharaoh changed his mind at the very
last
And forgot all about the plaques Of the past
And set his whole army in array
And followed them into the Sea Of Slough,
But how to get out they didn't know how.
And the story Of their loss is told TO this day.
But the children of God were safe and sound.
For the Lord led them over 10 high, dry
ground (Ex. i4:2l
And they started on their way
To the Promised Land that lay far ahead.
Where there was milk and honey and plenty
Of bread.
And We are telling that story today.
How they complained and grumbled a lot
When they remembered the smell OF Egypts
iesh-pot.
But God again heard their cry.
And sent them quail and mama too
(That was a whole lot better than Egypt's
stew
For they thought they would starve and die
So today we hnd them faring fine.
On Mamma from Heaven they daily dine.
And it's just the food they need
And they catch and cook the lazy quail-(Ex,
l5l3-14)
A part of Gods promise that did not fall
o. His promises are precious indeed.
Again the people began to complain (Ex. 1922
on Moses they heaped every bit of the blame
And back to Egypt were ready to go.
Again Moses hearkened TO the voice Of God
To take the Elders Of Israel and his rod
And o! how the waters from the rock did fiow.
But in all their grumblng they were lot
like US,
mean, when it comes to sinful lust
II the grace Of God we lack.
For we are not satisfied at all
And haven't been since Adams fall
But TO SINS taskmaster rather bend our back.
But there's freedom for US from every sin.
II we'll put our confidence and trust in Him,
Who's able TO lead us out
Yes out through the sea Of sin and shame,
II wen put our trust in His blessed name
And cease from complaining and doubt.
For Jesus the Lamb OF God has died
He bled on the cross was cruciied.
That He might seal us with His blood
Gods messengers are calling throughout the
land
To come join the hosts of Israels band.
BY obeying the voice Of God.
But the hosts Of Hell are ready to fight
And hinder our course with all their might.
But God is able to help us win;
So make the start for home today.
God will go with you all the way.
And deliver you from the bondage Of sin.
