5]The courage of Abraham walking with God

Introduction ​The courage of Abraham walking with God, Climbing the paths beneath the gaze of the heavens, Carrying deep within his heart the weight of a heavy torment, The mysterious order, the divine command: "Give me your only son, the chosen one of your love, He whom in your old age was granted to you one day." ​[Verse 1] On Mount Moriah, after a long walk, Where silence weighs at the gates of the ark, He finally sees the awaited peak rising, The holy land where the trial is recognized. He dismisses his servants along the path, To advance alone, the wood gripped in his hand... ​[Chorus] He obeys with a pure faith, Places his hope in the resurrection, An act of love without hesitation, Jehovah rewards obedience and turns it into gold... ​[Verse 2] Faith guides his steps, without knowing yet That he traces in blood an imperishable gold; On the stone altar he binds his child, Like a pure lamb with a shivering breath. He silently replays, in this supreme gesture, The offering of the Father and the Son that we love.... ​[Chorus] He obeys with a pure faith, Places his hope in the resurrection, An act of love without hesitation, Jehovah rewards obedience and turns it into gold. ​[Verse 3] Isaac is the image of Christ to come, The innocent whom an angel suddenly comes to rescue. The hand stops dead at the height of dread, The trial of anguish is turned into faith; The prophet is blessed, rich in golden promises, And his descendants abound again and again.... ​[Chorus] He obeys with a pure faith, Places his hope in the resurrection, An act of love without hesitation, Jehovah rewards obedience and turns it into gold.... ​[Outro] Let us walk in the footsteps of this man of faith, Carrying in our hearts the same and holy law. Endless graces will come that will guide our steps... our steps... For all those who fear and serve down here... down here...
