Holy Is The Lord

Andrew Peterson


Wake up little Isaac 
And rub your tired eyes 
Go and kiss your mama 
We'll be gone a little while 
Come and walk beside me 
Come and hold your papa's hand 
I go to make an altar 
And to offer up my lamb 

I waited on the Lord 
And in a waking dream He came 
Riding on a wind across the sand 
He spoke my name 
"Here I am", I whispered 
And I waited in the dark 
The answer was a sword 
That came down hard upon my heart 

Holy is the Lord 
Holy is the Lord 
And the Lord I will obey 
Lord, help me I don't know the way 

So take me to the mountain 
I will follow where You lead 
There I'll lay the body 
Of the boy You gave to me 
And even though You take him 
Still I ever will obey 
But Maker of this mountain, please 
Make another way 

Holy is the Lord 
Holy is the Lord 
And the Lord I will obey 
Holy is the Lord 
Holy is the Lord 
And the Lord I will obey 
Lord, help me I don't know the way
