The Lord Provides

Rating: 5.0


Through Adam’s sin, God cursed the ground –Gen.3: 17
Through which is death, ordained –Gen.3: 19
Through blood alone, salvation’s found –Heb.9: 22
And life through faith regained –Heb.11: 6

Before God’s Son to flesh was born
Before as Lamb impaled
A shadow of that day to dawn
The Lord has long unveiled

When Isaac on the altar lay
No promise yet received –Heb.11: 39
Saw Abraham his Saviour’s day
And through his faith believed

Withholding nought, his son would live
His love he proved God well –Gen.22: 12
The Lord Himself, a Lamb would give
Who’d die to save from hell –Gen.22: 8

Through Christ God’s holy blood would flow
The promised Lamb of old –Gen.22: 8
Defeating thus the ancient foe
Just as the prophets told –Isa.53: 1-12

On Egypt land God’s children slaved –Ex.1: 11
To Pharaoh bent their knee
A Hebrew in the palace raised Ex.1: 10
Would set the captive free –Ex.3: 10

A lamb for every house would die –Ex.12: 3
Wherein God’s children stood –Ex.12: 22
Through faith in Him who reigns on high –Heb.11: 13
Their doors they stained in blood –Ex.12: 7+Jos.2: 17-20

Made perfect on the cross of wood –Heb.5: 8-9
To all who understand –Mt.11: 25
The promise God has ceiled with blood –Ro.8: 11
Is sealed in Jesus’ hand –Eph.1: 7…
