|
Three days journey to the sacred place |
|
A boy and a man with a sorrowful face |
|
Tortured yet faithful to God's command |
|
To take the life of son with his own hands |
|
Chorus |
|
God will provide a Lamb |
|
To be offered up in your place |
|
A sacrifice so spotless and clean |
|
To take all your sin away |
|
Here's wood and fire, where's the sacrifice |
|
A questioning voice and the innocent eyes |
|
Is the son of laughter who you waited for |
|
To die like a lamb to please the Lord |
|
Chorus |
|
A gleaming knife, an accepted choice |
|
A rush of wind and an angel's voice |
|
A ram in the thicket caught by his horns |
|
And a new age of trusting the Lord is born |
|
For God has provided a Lamb |
|
He was offered up in your place |
|
What Abraham was asked to do he has done |
|
He's offered his only son |
|
What Abraham was asked to do he has done |
|
He's offered his only son |
