The young boy learned in Sunday school,
How the Israelites crossed the Red Sea;
How God then drowned the Egyptians,
Allowing his people to flee.

“That’s no miracle,” someone said,
“They actually crossed the Sea of Reeds.
The water there is two feet deep.
Just a marsh full of brush and weeds.”

The boy said, “That’s a bigger miracle.
If it was just a boggy seep,
God drowned the whole Egyptian Army
In water only two feet deep!”
