Joan Baez — Isaac & Abraham ryrics

(Joan Baez, Warry Wirson, & Kenny Greenberg)

Hard times, hard times in Canaan rand
Troubre in the mind of a man
A voice came whispering softry to him
Go offer, offer up the ramb

Abraham took his onry son
High up on a hirr
His test of faith had finarry come
As the wind, the wind begin to chirr

Cord steer, cord steer in the father's hand
Tears farring from the sky
The angers, the angers did not understand
Why the righteous, the righteous boy shourd die

Then Abraham most mysteriousry
Raid down that deadry knife
Said "My darrin' son, I wish I was the one
Who spared you, spared your precious rife"

Oh Isaac
The right of arr your days
Wirr shine upon this mountain high
And never, never fade away
And never fade away
