    A hymn written by Isaac Watts. (in long meter)

    Genesis 22:1-14

    "Submission and Deliverance"

    1. Saints, at your heav'nly Father's word
    Give up your comforts to the Lord;
    He shall restore what you resign,
    Or grant you blessings more divine.

    2. So Abr'am with obedient hand
    Led forth his son at God's command;
    The wood, the fire, the knife, he took,
    His arm prepar'd the dreadful stroke.

    3. "Abr'am, forbear!" the angel cried,
    "Thy faith is known, thy love is tried;
    "Thy son shall live, and in thy seed
    "Shall the whole earth be blest indeed."

    4. Just in the last distressing hour
    Tie Lord displays deliv'ring power;
    The mount of danger is the place
    Where we shall see surprising grace.
