Three day's 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 his 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 There's wood and fire Where's the sacrifice The questioning voice And the innocent eyes Is the son of laughter who you've 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 Chorus God has provided a lamb He was offered up in your place What Abraham was asked to do, he's done He's offered his only son What Abraham was asked to do, he's done He's offered his only son
