To the Wilderness and Beyond

https://m.soundcloud.com/user-921599710/to-the-wilderness-and-beyond Beyond the destruction, a journey to the south The bearing of a promised child Unto Abraham and Sarah, within their latter stage The joy of Isaac An awesome wonder Hagar and son, of company within the tent In playful sight, both sons adjoined A jubilant feast, with Ishmael unkind, merriment declined The yearning of honour, attention be sought An imminent request, send them away Instructions of sorrow, Abraham obliged Mother and son to voyage on Seek the place where you belong Replenishing supplies A radiant sunrise, in the land of Egypt Ye to wonder to the wilderness Walking on empty, thirsty and faint Wander no father Suffering son Weeping in solitude, fearful afraid God heard the cry of pain Draw to the spring, water arise Be now filled, I shall provide Your son shall live, grow and thrive Strength shall arise, wait upon the Lord Written by Geraldine Taylor ©
