When Israel went out from Egypt 
The house of Jacob from that place of foreign tongue 
Judah became God's holy sanctuary 
Israel became God's realm to rule 

The Red Sea saw it and ran away 
The Jordan River turned back 
The mountains danced like rams 
The hills skipped like lambs 

Sea, why do you run away? 
River, why turn back? 
Mountains, why dance and hills why skip? 

The earth trembles in awe at the Holy One, 
Trembles in awe at the God of Jacob 

Who turned a desert stone into a pool 
and a rock into a fountain.
