All of these years i've waited and prayed
for this child i see.
Can you tell me somehow 
what to say so him now,
as he looks up at me...

ch.
God will provide the lamb,
God will provide the lamb,
It is time to obey,
though we don't understand
God will provide the lamb. 

Here is the wood, here is the fire,
i can hear him say:
"But i don't understand, 
father, where is the lamb,
we are to offer today?"
