Exodus 15:1-18
Excerpted from: God's Sea of Glass (Part 2)

The "song of Moses" (Exodus 15:1-18) points to the song of victory sung by Moses and the Israelites after their passage through the Red Sea. This song may be the one sung on the sea of glass. It is referring to the Red Sea crossing that spiritually symbolizes the process of salvation from God's calling to our baptism, overcoming, leaving sin behind, and entering God's kingdom.

The ancient "song of Moses" is fulfilled in the future "song of the Lamb," which tells of a greater redemption of a new kingdom of priests: the bride of Christ. Essentially, this song pictures the majesty, holiness, and purity of God. A later song of Moses praised the Lord whose ways are just. That song of Moses is found in Deuteronomy 32:1-43 (note especially verse 4).

Exodus 15:18
Excerpted from: Shouting Gleanings and Singing Olives (Part Two)

The final verse of the song, which is verse 18, is kind of a one liner. It is a clincher.

Notice the stress on reign. And again, the Hebrew words underlying those two words "forever and ever" first appear right here. Those are the same two words that appear in Isaiah 26:4 translated there a bit differently, translated with the word "forever" and "everlasting."

Of course, the song ends:

And if that is not a clue, I do not know what is. What happens once God makes His judgments upon this wicked world, Christ is here, and He will reign for ever and ever.
