Mountain of the Lord - Blue Highway

Mountain of the Lord Lyrics

Come to the mountain of the Lord
He will provide
God tested Abraham
He said take your only son
Bring Isaac to Moriah
though his life has just begun
Offer up a sacrifice
of the lamb you deem most fair
Bring Isaac to the mountain
then you must kill him there
That humble Hebrew servant
built an altar in the sky
He bound his son upon it
then he drew his dagger nigh

Then an angel of Jehovah
called to Abraham on high
“You've proved to God you're worthy
Take your son, he need not die”
Now tell me brother tell me
What would you have done
If God required a sacrifice
of your only precious son
Yet Jesus came among us
Through his father's plan on high
To save the world from darkness
His precious lamb did die
