[Sure token of redemption near]
Since I came to Pharaoh, he hath done evil, &c.
—v. 23.
Sure token of redemption near,
Our servitude is more severe,
And heavier is our chain,
Thou hast not rescued us at all;
Of harder tasks, and sorer thrall,
More deeply we complain.
Our servitude is more severe,
And heavier is our chain,
Thou hast not rescued us at all;
Of harder tasks, and sorer thrall,
More deeply we complain.

By this assuredly we know
The tyrant soon shall let us go,
Compell'd by power Divine;
We then to liberty restored
Shall worship our redeeming Lord,
And live for ever Thine.
