Verse
1
In
the heat of the day, near Mamre's plain,
The
Lord appeared to Abraham once again.
Three
men stood by as he sat at his door,
A
moment divine, a visit to adore.
Chorus
Angels
on the sand, walking hand in hand,
A
promise given by God's command.
Faith
and love intertwined, a covenant signed,
In
Abraham's heart, God's word enshrined.
Verse
2
Abraham
ran, his heart full of grace,
Bowed
low to the ground, a humble embrace.
“Stay,
let me serve, rest under this tree,
A
morsel of bread, refreshment for thee.”
Chorus
Angels
on the sand, walking hand in hand,
A
promise given by God's command.
Faith
and love intertwined, a covenant signed,
In
Abraham's heart, God's word enshrined.
Verse
3
Sarah
prepared, the finest of bread,
A
tender calf, their table was spread.
“Where
is your wife?” the strangers did say,
“In
the tent,” he replied, in a humble way.
Bridge
“Next
year this time, a son she will bear,”
Sarah
laughed softly, but the angels were aware.
“Is
anything too hard for the Lord?” they proclaimed,
A
child of promise, Isaac by name.
Verse
4
As
they rose to leave, Abraham walked along,
The
Lord spoke of Sodom, its grievous wrong.
A
plea for the righteous, Abraham did make,
“Would
You spare the city, for ten’s sake?”
Chorus
Angels
on the sand, walking hand in hand,
A
promise given by God's command.
Faith
and love intertwined, a covenant signed,
In
Abraham's heart, God's word enshrined.
Verse
5
The
Lord agreed, in mercy and grace,
A
dialogue of justice, face to face.
Abraham’s
faith, a beacon so bright,
In
the plains of Mamre, under the light.
Outro
In
the heat of the day, near Mamre’s plain,
The
Lord appeared to Abraham once again.
Three
men stood by as he sat at his door,
A
moment divine, a visit to adore.
