From the recording What Kind of Man Is He

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Old Abraham heard the voice in the night,
“Take your son, your only, to the mountain height.”
With a heavy heart, he rose to obey,
Trustin’ in the Lord to show him the way.
[Chorus]
Oh, Abraham and Isaac, climbin’ through the dawn,
Faith in every footstep, though the hope seemed gone.
God’s promise held them steady, through the fire and the test,
For the Lord provides the answer when we give our best.
[Verse 2]
Isaac carried wood, his father’s hand was near,
A question in his eyes, but he showed no fear.
“Father, where’s the lamb?” the young voice cried,
Abraham said, “God will provide.”
[Chorus]
Oh, Abraham and Isaac, climbin’ through the dawn,
Faith in every footstep, though the hope seemed gone.
God’s promise held them steady, through the fire and the test,
For the Lord provides the answer when we give our best.
[Bridge]
Up on Moriah, the altar was laid,
A father’s trembling hand, a prayer softly prayed.
But the angel called out, “Stop, let him be free!”
A ram in the thicket was the victory.
[Chorus]
Oh, Abraham and Isaac, climbin’ through the dawn,
Faith in every footstep, though the hope seemed gone.
God’s promise held them steady, through the fire and the test,
For the Lord provides the answer when we give our best.
[Outro]
So sing of Abraham, and Isaac too,
A story of trust, and a love so true.
When the road is steep, and the night’s too vast,
God’s grace is the promise that will always last.
