Lyrics

(E5)A bra ham took I saac’s hand and led him to the lone

some hill,

while his (E5)daugh ter (E5)hid and (E5)watched.

She (E5)dared not (E5)breathe; she (E5)was

so still.

(G)Just as the an gel (D)cried for the slaugh ter, (C)A bra ham’s daugh ter (Bm)raised her (E5)voice.

(E5)Then the an gel asked her what her name was; she said, “I

have none.”

Then he (E5)asked, “How (E5)can this (E5)be?” “My (E5)fath er (E5)nev er (E5)gave

me one.”

(G)And when he saw her, (D)raised for the slaugh ter, (C)A bra ham’s daugh ter (Bm)raised her (E5)voice.

(Bm)raised her (E5)bow.

(G)“How dar est you, child, (D)de fy your fa ther?” (C)“You bet ter let young (Bm)I saac (E5)go!”
