While in him confided the deed [sea ?] was divided
While upward he lifted his rod.
The Jews safely crossed while Pharo’s host
Was drounded in the water and lost.
Then away by the mountain so high
Stood Moses with trembling an’ awe;
With lightning and thunder, great signs and wonders,
While God was giving the law.
He wrote it down on two tables of stone
Before he returned to the sky.
