Program:

• Part 1 : Dead march from Saul ; Now there arose a new king ; And the children of Israel sighed ; Then sent He Moses ; They loathed to drink of the river ; Their land brought forth frogs ; He spake the word ; He gave them hailstones ; He sent a thick darkness ; He smote all the first-born ; But as for His people ; He rebuked the Red Sea ; He led them through the deep ; But the waters overwhelmed their enemies ; The depths have covered them ; Moses and the children of Israel sang
• Part 2 : Who is like unto Thee? ; The earth swallowed them ; And with the blast of Thy nostrils ; The people shall hear ; Thou shalt bring them in ; The Lord shall reign ; For the horse of Pharaoh ; The Lord shall reign ; And Miriam the prophetess ; Sing ye to the Lord
