Slaves!
Hebrews born to serve, to the pharaoh
Heed!
To his every word, live in fear
Faith!
Of the unknown one, the deliverer
Wait!
Something must be done, four hundred years

So let it be written,
So let it be done,
I'm sent here by the chosen one.
So let it be written,
So let it be done,
To kill the first born pharaoh son....
I'm creeping death!

Now!
Let my people go, land of goshen,
Go!
I will be with thee, bush of fire,
Blood!
Running red and strong, down the Nile,
Plague!
Darkness three days long, hail to fire!

So let it be written,
So let it be done,
I'm sent here by the chosen one.
So let it be written,
So let it be done,
To kill the first born pharaoh son...
I'm creeping death!

Die by my hand
I creep across the land
Killing first born man
Die by my hand
I creep across the land
Killing first born man

I!
Rule the midnight air the destroyer
Born!
I shall soon be there, deadly mass
I!
Creep the steps and flood final darkness
Blood!
Lambs blood painted door, I shall pass

So let it be written,
So let it be done,
I'm sent here by the chosen one.
So let it be written,
So let it be done,
To kill the first born pharaoh son...
I'm creeping death!
