God Will Provide A Lamb Lyrics - Singles - Card Michael

Michael Card 

Genesis 22:1-14 & Hebrews 11:17-19 

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
