Verse 1
I’m lost in Egypt
A slave to my own sin
Can’t find my way out
Don’t know where to begin

Verse 2
My eyes see trouble
Off in the distance
The fate of my future
God only knows

Chorus
I’m lost in Egypt
Sinking in a desert sand
Lost in Egypt
Lord will you take my hand

Verse 3
I must turn quickly
No time to hesitate
I long for safety
Across the red sea

Bridge
I want to know the reason
Why would a King become a man
To lead us out of the desert sand




Behind the Song:
"Only a hand full of hard core Code fans know that this song was written and used as the title of my first demo tape (1989). I changed the music but left the lyrics intact. This song means so much more to me now than when I first wrote it! I have felt a slave to my own sin (as the first verse reads). I think that the older I get, the more I really want to understand and become like Jesus. To do that I must dig out of MY Egypt and stand delivered!" - Barry Blaze (Code Of Ethics)
