Rod Seen at the Red Sea

Read:  Psalm 69 / Proverbs 16 / Exodus 14 / 1 Corinthians 10

Psalm 69:9,30 The reproaches of them that reproached Thee are fallen upon Me... Magnify Him with thanksgiving.
Proverbs 16:6 By mercy and truth iniquity is purged.
Exodus 14:30,31 Thus the LORD saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead upon the sea shore.  And Israel saw that great work... and the people feared the LORD, and believed the LORD.
1 Corinthians 10:1,2,6 All our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; and were all baptized unto Moses in... in the sea... Now these things were our examples.

When Moses lifted up his rod
The waters of the Red Sea spread. 
The people saw the work of God
When all their enemies were dead. 

Another rod was then foreseen
When our reproach, like crashing waves,
Fell on our Lord to intervene
And bear the wrath for those He saves.
