When I Lay My Isaac Down

1.
Abraham prayed for the day
God would give him a son
Blessed Isaac was his name
The greatest gift he'd ever known
Then came the day, who would have dreamed
God would say "Give him to me
On this mountain you will prove,
It's you and Isaac, or it's me and you"
Chorus
When I lay my Isaac down
Broken heart but my Fathers proud
On this altar here he lays
Just to find it wasn't him that He wanted, it was me
2.
Most of us I'd dare to say
Have an Isaac in God's way
On the altar God will prove
It's not your Isaac that He wants, He wants you
Chorus 2.
When I lay my Isaac down
Broken heart but my Fathers proud
On the altar there I see
It's not my Isaac that He wants, He wants me
Tag
On this altar there I see
Just to find it wasn't him He/(God) wanted me
