Abraham's Daughter |
Abraham took Isaac’s hand |
And led him to the lonesome hill |
While his daughter hid and watched |
She dared not breathe she was so still |
Just as the angel cried for the slaughter |
Abraham’s daughter raised her voice |
Then the angel asked her what her |
Name was she said «I have none» |
Then he asked how can this be |
My father never gave me one |
And with his sword up, raised for the slaughter |
Abraham’s daughter raised her bow |
How darest you child defy your father |
You better let young Isaac go |
