[C#] [G#]
[F#] [G#] [C#]
Abraham, you bow [G#] to me
I am ready, Lord, what [D#] do you want of me?
[F#] Take your son, your only one, your joy above [A#m] all things
[F#] You shall journey up the mountain [C#m] to the place of which I speak
[F#] You shall land on the altar, you [G#] shall give him back to me
[C#] [G#] [F#] The night did [G#] not sleep [C#] that night
[F#] And my agony gave [C#m] birth to [F#] the morning light
For three timeless days [C#] my son walked by my side
[F#] And Isaac turned to me as [G#] we approached the [C#m] chosen height
[G#] Father, I carry the load and you [A#] carry the flame
[G#] But where is the love [F#] for the [G#] sacrifice [C#] of praise?
[G#] When you said God will provide [F#] what he [C#m] asked for [A#m] we must do
Oh [F#] God, I [C#m]
[G#] trust [C#] in [F#] you
[G#] This
[F#] [G#] [C#]
was the child you gave [G#] to me
The [F#] fruit of [G#] all my prayers I [A#m] offered fervently
[D#m] [F#] My son, my only [C#] one who bore the world for me
[F#] I took it from his shoulders [G#] when our [C#m] journey was complete
I [F#] began to build the altar, [G#] then I bowed his hands and [C#] feet
[G#] Then [F#] I looked [G#] into [C#] his eyes
[F#] I saw the [C#] confusion [A#m] and I heard his cries
[F#] Father, why are you doing [C#] this?
Please say something to me
[F#] Your silence was my sole reply, [G#] I could no longer speak
Then I lay down and [F#] I [A#m] shook like a flame
[G#] With trembling hands I took the knife [F#] and [A#m] prayed for strength
Oh, [G#] I do not understand, but [F#] my [C#] love for [A#m] you is true
Oh [F#] God, I [G#] trust in [B] you
Abraham, [C#] the Lord cried out to me
Did [B] I say, your son, [C#] you're not harm in the least?
[A#m] Now I know that there is [A] nothing you won't do
Now I know your love for me is true
By [C#] your faith, [B] every nation shall [A#m] find blessing in [C#] your name
You have trusted in [B] my promise, so [A#m] your kingdom shall [B] be great
You'll [Fm] have descendants countless as the [F#] stars and sands of the sea
[G#] [F#] All the world's been blessed through [G#] your obedience to me
[C#] Jesus in his [G#] agony
I [C#] am [G#] ready, Lord, what [D#] do you [A#m] want of me?
[F#] My son, my only one, [C#] my face revealed to see
[F#] You shall journey up the mountain to [C#m] the cross on [E] Calvary
You [F#] shall lay down on the altar, you [G#] shall die to set them free
And [F#] you did not [G#] sleep that [F#] night
And your agony [G#] gave [A#] birth to the morning light
For [F#] three timeless hours you made one last [C#] sacrifice
[F#] To save us by your blood and [G#] not for all this eternal life
[C#]
[G#] Lamb of God, upon this [F#] spirit's burning [A#m] flame
For [G#] the king is only son, as [F#] the lamb to [A#m] his slain
[G#] Temple built on the cross, which [F#] will [G#] promise [A#m] his own truth
Oh [F#] God, I [G#] trust [C#m] [F#] in Jesus
I [G#] trust [C#m] in [F#] Jesus
I [G#] trust in [C#m]
you
