When I Lay My Isaac Down Lyrics & Chords

By Billy Fields

Verse 1
(C)
Abraham prayed for the day 
God would (F)
give him a (C)
son 
Blessed Isaac was his name 
The greatest (D)
gift he’d ever (G)
known 
Then came the (C)
day, who would have dreamed 
God would (F)
say “Give him to (C)
me
On this mountain you will prove, 
It’s you and Isaac, or it’s (G)
me and (C)
you”

Chorus
When I lay my (F)
Isaac (C)
down 
Broken (F)
heart but my Fathers (C)
proud 
On this altar here he lays 
Just to find it wasn’t him He (G)
wanted (C)
me 

Verse 2
Most of us I’d dare to say 
Have an Isaac in God’s way 
On the Altar God will prove 
It’s not your Isaac that he wants 
He wants you 

Chorus
When I lay my Isaac down 
Broken heart but my Fathers proud 
On this altar here he lays 
Just to find it wasn’t him He wanted me

Abraham prayed for the day
God would give him a son
Blessed Isaac was his name
The greatest gift he'd ever known
Then came the day, who would have dreamed
God would say "Give him to me
On this mountain you will prove,
It's you and Isaac, or it's me and you"
When I lay my Isaac down
Broken heart but my Fathers proud
On this altar here he lays
Just to find it wasn't him he/(God) wanted me
Most of us I'd dare to say
Have an Isaac in God's way
On the Altar God will prove
It's not your Isaac that he wants
He wants you
On this altar here he lays
Just to find it wasn't him he/(God) wanted me

What does it mean to lay your Isaac down?
