God Will Provide a Lamb

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 in his own hands

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

God will provide a lamb
To be offered up in your place
A sacrifice so spotless and clean
To take all your sin away

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 was born

'Cause 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
