Abraham _ prayed _ [F] _ _ [C]
for the day _ that God [F] would _ _ _ give him [C]
a son.
_ _ Blessed _ _ _ _ Isaac [F] _ [C] was his name, [F] the greatest [C]
gift _ _ [G] _ he'd [C] ever known.
_ _ [G] Then [C] came the day _ _ _ [F] who would [C] have dreamed _ that God would [F] say,
_ You've got a giving to [C]
me.
_ _ _ Now on this _ _ _ mountain [F] you [C] will _ prove
_ It's you and Isaac _ [G] or it's me [C] and you.
_ _ And when I laid _ _ [F] my _ [C]
Isaac down
With a [F] broken _ heart, but my _ [C]
father's proud.
_ And on this _ _ _ altar [F] where [C]
he laid
_ _ [F] Just [C] to find it wasn't [G] him God _ [C]
wanted me. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ Now [G] most [C] of us, _ _ _ [F] I [C] dare to say
_ _ _ _ We've got an [F] _ _ Isaac _ in [C] God's way.
_ _ But on this _ altar _ [F] you [C] can prove
_ _ [F] It's not your [C]
Isaac that God wants, [G] he's wanting [C] _
you.
_ _ And when I laid _ _ _ _ [F] _ [C] my Isaac down
_ With a [F] broken _ heart, but my [C] father's _ proud.
_ And on this _ _ altar [F] where [C] he _ lay
_ _ [F] Just to [C]
find it wasn't him [G] _ God [C] wanted _ _ me.
_ And on this _ _ _ altar [F] where _ [C]
he lay
_ _ _ [F] Just to [C]
