They ignored the evidence, treated with irreverence, Slavery, deliverance and faith. Slavery, deliverance and faith.
In the truth of a sister he loses a brother, Challenged by each to be one or the other. He runs from them both, but he won't escape his destiny. With a promised new land and a hallowed prediction, Fueled by the fire of a burning conviction, 'Oh, hear me,' he cries, 'brother, Pharoh, set my people free!'
