God told Abraham take Isaac up the mountain
and there make him a sacrifice to me
I know tears rolled and breath was hard to come by
while Abraham was knelt there on his knees
So hand in hand they headed up the mountain
and he thought about the thing that lay in store
like shattered glass inside his heart was breaking
cause he never known a pain like this before
Too soon they reached that spot where they were going
and he laid Isaac down on his deathbed
his heart raced as he drew the knife to strike him
but a God of Mercy stopped him and he said
I just wanted you to know
exactly how it feels
to watch the son you love
Walk up a lonely hill
to feel the pain inside
as your heart breaks in your chest
to lose the very thing
that you love the best
so now you've walked the walk
and i know you understand
the price that must be paid
to correct the sins of man
and you'll know just how i'll feel
when they walk him up that hill
I just wanted you to know
Repeat Chorus:
exactly how it feels
to watch the son you love
Walk up a lonely hill
to feel the pain inside
as your heart breaks in your chest
to lose the very thing
that you love the best
so now you've walked the walk
and i know you understand
the price that must be paid
to correct the sins of man
and you'll know just how i'll feel
when they walk him up that hill
I just wanted you to know
Ending:
exactly how it feels
when they walk him up the hill
I just wanted you to know
