  1. Scripture: Exodus 14:26-31 and 15:1-2 • 26 Then the LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand over the sea so that the waters may flow back over the Egyptians and their chariots and horsemen.” • 27 Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and at daybreak the sea went back to its place. The Egyptians were fleeing toward it, and the LORD swept them into the sea. • 28 The water flowed back and covered the chariots and horsemen—the entire army of Pharaoh that had followed the Israelites into the sea. Not one of them survived.

  2. 29 But the Israelites went through the sea on dry ground, with a wall of water on their right and on their left. • 30 That day the LORD saved Israel from the hands of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians lying dead on the shore. • 31 And when the Israelites saw the mighty hand of the LORD displayed against the Egyptians, the people feared the LORD and put their trust in him and in Moses his servant.

  3. Exodus 15:1-2 • 1 Then Moses and the Israelites sang this song to the LORD: • “I will sing to the LORD, for he is highly exalted.
