FOR YOU
“Abraham/ I will make you a nation/ through my hand it will be done/ and I will give you Isaac/ he shall be the chosen one/ I will be his God and his kids will be my sons/ very soon i promise you, my love/ your child will come”/ Little did he know that God would later change his mind/ “Abraham, now I want you to sacrifice your child/ If you loved me/ if you feared me/ you would give it all to please me”/ Abraham fell on his knees and though he still believed, he said
(CH) There are so many things i love about you/ so many reasons i could hate you/ so many things i don’t understand you do/ but i’ll give him up for you/
In the fields of Haran, Jacob met the perfect bride/ “Seven years for Laban,” he said “I’ll work to make her mine”/ So in love with Rachel, he embraced the wedding night/ Face to face with Leah in the morning light/
She was praying by her bed in thanks for her new life/ Seven years she prayed that God would make Leah someone’s wife/ Rachel knew she’d never wed before the oldest child / Silently she buried her dreams/ to the Lord she cried (CH)
Well it wasn’t too long before the Lord gave Isaac back/ and seven days later Rachel got Jacob back/ yeah/
Lying in a manger bundled up in baby’s clothes/ smiling like an angel as a child who did not know that He would someday be the one to save the human soul/ Jesus Christ the sacrifice/ the God of hope/ All around the world was drowning, perishing in sin/ when the Lord looked down and said, “I’ll make you new again/ I don’t want to but I need to/ I will give it all to save you/ Do you even realize my child will die for you? (CH)
