ABRAHAM - Abram and Lot, Genesis 13:5-18 |
1. Abram and Lot were out traveling one day, Herdsmen were arguing all on the way. Abram said: Let there be no strife, I pray! For we are brothers let's not act this way. Camping with God, camping with God, We're on the move;; we're camping with God. Quickly we pack up, we're ready to go! At any moment, our God we'll follow. 2. Abram gave Lot then the first choice that day;; Lot saw the best land and he went that way. Abram got Canaan when Lot pitched his tent So close to Sodom;; the wrong way Lot went. If you go left, I will go right. There is no reason for us to fight. If you go right, to the left I will go God will take care of us both, this I know. 3. God said to Abram, Now lift up your eyes Look north, south, east, west you must realize All of the land you see, I'll give to you And to your children, yes, this I will do! Rise up and walk - walk through the land;; Walk through its length and breadth know it firsthand. Abram then did as the Lord said that day: Moved his tents down by the oaks of Mamre.
