Song 64

Faith Like That of Abraham

(Genesis 22:1-18)

1. How happy is the man that seeks

God’s Word to comprehend;

For God, the great Omniscient One,

Knows from the start the end.

Thus, for our comfort and strong hope,

By faithful men of old

He made prophetic dramas grand;

Their meanings now unfold.

2. O see now Abraham of old,

With Isaac by his side,

Ascending Mount Moriah’s height;

His faith is being tried.

Jehovah asked of Abraham

To offer his dear son

In loving sacrifice to God

That God’s will might be done.

3. Yet Abraham met that great test

And by obedience made

A picture of how, through God’s love,

His Son our ransom paid.

Would you gain life from that grand gift?

Submissive you must be

And have a faith like Abraham

And act obediently.
