• With the sting of the whip on my shoulder
    With the salt of my sweat on my brow
    Elohim, God on high
    Can you hear your people cry:
    Help us now
    This dark hour...

    Deliver us
    Hear our call
    Deliver us
    Lord of all
    Remember us, here in this burning sand
    Deliver us
    There's a land you promised us
    Deliver us to the promised land...

    Yal-di ha-tov veh ha-rach
    (My good and tender son)
    Al ti-ra veh al tif-chad
    (Don't be frightened and don't be scared)
    My son, I have nothing I can give
    But this chance that you may live
    I pray we'll meet again
    If He will deliver us

    [Slaves]
    Deliver us
    Hear our prayer
    Deliver us
    From despair
    These years of slavery grow
    too cruel to stand
    Deliver us
    There's a land you promised us
    Deliver us
    Out of bondage and
    Deliver us to the promised land...

    Hush now, my baby
    Be still, love, don't cry
    Sleep as you're rocked by the stream
    Sleep and remember my last lullaby
    So I'll be with you when you dream

    River, o river
    Flow gently for me
    Such precious cargo you bear
    Do you know somewhere
    he can live free?
    River, deliver him there...
    .
    Deliver us
    Send a shepherd to shepherd us
    And deliver us to the promised land

    Deliver us!
