When Pharaoh's horses, chariots and horsemen went into the sea, the Lord brought the waters of the sea back over them, but the Israelites walked through the sea on dry ground. Then Miriam the prophet, Aaron's sister, took a timbrel in her hand, and all the women followed her, with timbrels and dancing.
Exodus 15:19-20 NIV
All the plagues that God brought against Egypt were less personally impressive to the Israelites than the Red Sea and drowning of Pharaoh's horses and chariots. This last miracle had the Israelites directly in the middle of it and they had been afraid for their lives.
After this great deliverance the people all sang songs of joy before God!
