[Part I - The Road] Take now your son, your only son, The one for whom the waiting was done. Three days traveling, wood on the load, Father and child on the mountain road. Servants remained where the donkeys stood; Isaac carried the altar wood. [Recurring Line] God will provide. [Part II - The Question] Fire in the hand and a knife at his side, "My father, where is the lamb?" Isaac cried. Abraham answered while climbing higher, "God will provide the lamb for the fire." Stone upon stone, the wood laid straight, The son was bound at the edge of fate. [Recurring Line] God will provide. [Part III - The Voice] The hand rose over the promised life; Heaven called twice and arrested the knife. "Lay not thine hand upon the lad." Faith had withheld nothing Abraham had. Caught by the horns in a thicket nearby, A ram took the place where the son did not die. [Final Refrain] God will provide on the mount of the Lord, Mercy will answer the obedient word. The promise returned with the stars and the sand; Nations would bless through Abraham's hand. God will provide.
