Genesis
20
[Verse
1]
In
Gerar's land, Abraham did dwell,
With
Sarah, his wife, a beauty to tell.
She
caught the eye of Abimelech the king,
Who
took her in haste, a perilous fling.
[Chorus]
Oh,
Sarah, fairest of them all,
Caught
in deceit's enthralling thrall.
Abraham,
fearing for his life,
Said,
"She's my sister," in the strife.
[Verse
2]
The
king, deceived, took Sarah near,
But
God intervened, his message clear.
In
dreams of night, a warning came,
"Took
another's wife, you're not to blame."
[Chorus]
Oh,
Sarah, fairest of them all,
Caught
in deceit's enthralling thrall.
Abimelech,
trembling with fright,
Restored
Sarah to Abraham that night.
[Bridge]
Abimelech,
in morning's light,
Confronted
Abraham, no more in flight.
"Why
deceive me, risking my realm?
God's
hand was on you, guiding the helm."
[Verse
3]
Abraham
confessed, explained his fear,
How
Sarah truly his wife was near.
The
king, in grace, gifts did provide,
For
God's protection, he did abide.
[Chorus]
Oh,
Sarah, fairest of them all,
Caught
in deceit's enthralling thrall.
Abraham
learned, in trials deep,
God's
faithfulness he would keep.
[Outro]
Thus,
peace restored, they parted ways,
With
lessons learned from those dark days.
In
Gerar's land, a testament,
God's
mercy shown, His covenant.
