Keith Green - So You Wanna Go Back To Egypt (live) chords
Start Jamming...
This song is called so you wanna go back to Egypt and the whole message tonight is about
Could God do to us what he did to the Israelites?
I mean the Israelites
It's kind of hard to the new Israelis, you know, they call them Israelites in the Bible
[B] Here we are at Santa Rosa ites up here
And stalagmites hanging from the ceiling we're
This is about this whole message that the Lord has given me tonight that I believe the Lord's given me if he hasn't we're all in trouble is
Could God do to us what he did to them or There's another working title
Has God changed?
What does the Bible say?
Can God change?
Amen, God does not change only
[A] the contract changed
Only the Covenant God didn't change the Testaments changed the Covenant
It's kind of like he saw how few people were getting in under the old contract.
So he renegotiated a new contract
Because a lot of us dumbos just couldn't get in under the old one.
You know, I mean
but
[Bb]
God has some [F] principles
That still operate today.
[Bb] Thank God and this song is called so you want to go back to Egypt.
It's about a bunch of
people called the children of Israel that were captive in Egypt and
God worked an incredible amount of miracles to get him out
it was plague city in Cairo
[Bm] and
so that would have dropped his teeth if he was around then and
When God got them out of Egypt
after a few days
They started bellyaching.
What are we gonna do for water?
Did God bring us out here to make us die of thirst?
He goes no he gets you water out of this little stand here with a rock, you know, just hit the rock out comes water
So anyway, God sent the manna
What's the manna?
Man is this stuff that comes out of the sky and falls with the dew and it was kind of like well
It's kind of like Wonder Bread.
You know, I mean and
They kind of got sick and tired after after a few decades, you know, they don't like this stuff
[B]
So they complain and finally they gave God the ultimate insult
Well, we sure had a better back in Egypt, man
Hey, man, we used to have jumbo jacks with garlic and onions
And I hope that Lavoras do
This [E] is all called so you want to go back to Egypt.
Listen, this is not just a comedy about
Israelites and
Egyptians this is about you and I
The people of God in a world called Egypt or spiritual Sodom
Figure that one out.
