"Egypt" is a song by Bethel Music and Cory Asbury, which was released as the third single from Bethel Music's twelfth live album, Revival's in the Air (2020), on April 3, 2020.

Background

On April 3, 2020, Bethel Music released that "Egypt" as the third single to their album, Revival's in the Air (2020), which was initially marketed as God of Revival at the time that the single was released.

[4]

Cory Asbury shared the story behind the song, which first came to view in 2017 following his family's move from Colorado Springs to Kalamazoo, Michigan, [5] saying:

My wife and I were leading worship at our local church, and during the final song of the set the church just erupted into spontaneous praise. Our pastor jumped on stage and began leading the room in thanksgiving. During this time, he spoke the phrase, 'You stepped into my Egypt,' and something inside of me leapt. It was the phrase my heart had been feeling but lacked language for until that moment.

— Cory Asbury
