Give thanks to him who killed the firstborn of Egypt.
His faithful love endures forever.
He brought Israel out of Egypt.
His faithful love endures forever.
He acted with a strong hand and a powerful arm.
His faithful love endures forever.
Give thanks to him who killed the firstborn of Egypt. His faithful love endures forever.

Psalm 44:1-3
O God, we have heard it with our own ears--
our ancestors have told us
of all you did in their day,
in days long ago.
You drove out the pagan nations by your power
and gave all the land to our ancestors.
You crushed their enemies
and set our ancestors free.
They did not conquer the land with their swords;
it was not their own strong arm that gave them victory.
It was your right hand and strong arm
and the blinding light from your face that helped them,
for you loved them. [see all Psalm 44]
