GEN 26:30-35

English Lyrics
 

(Verse 1)

In the land of old, a story to be told,

Isaac's table set with silver and gold,

A feast fit for a king, with grandees all around,

A generous act, where harmony was found.

(Chorus)

So he made them a feast, a feast of love and grace,

They ate and they drank, with smiles on their face,

Their hearts were now light, their pasts left behind,

In peace and in friendship, their souls intertwined.

(Verse 2)

With the morning sun, they rose and took an oath,

A promise to keep, a bond that was both,

Isaac sent them on their way, in peace they did depart,

A new beginning born from a generous heart.

(Chorus)

So he made them a feast, a feast of love and grace,

They ate and they drank, with smiles on their face,

Their hearts were now light, their pasts left behind,

In peace and in friendship, their souls intertwined.

(Verse 3)

Isaac's servants returned, with news to share,

Water had been found, a wellspring so rare,

Shibah they named it, a covenant's embrace,

A symbol of their bond in that sacred place.

(Chorus)

So he made them a feast, a feast of love and grace,

They ate and they drank, with smiles on their face,

Their hearts were now light, their pasts left behind,

In peace and in friendship, their souls intertwined.

(Verse 4)

Forty years had passed, Esau's heart had changed,

Like a boar in the forest, his ways rearranged,

He took two Hittite daughters, as his own,

But their actions would turn their father's home to stone.

(Chorus)

So he made them a feast, a feast of love and grace,

They ate and they drank, with smiles on their face,

Their hearts were now light, their pasts left behind,

In peace and in friendship, their souls intertwined.

(Verse 5)

But as they wed these women, life grew bitter still,

Isaac and Rebekah felt a heavy chill,

The choices made by Esau, they couldn't comprehend,

Their love for him remained, though their hearts could not mend.

(Chorus)

So he made them a feast, a feast of love and grace,

They ate and they drank, with smiles on their face,

Their hearts were now light, their pasts left behind,

In peace and in friendship, their souls intertwined.

(Outro)

In this ancient tale of love, and choices made,

A feast of goodwill, in the past they'd wade,

Though life grew bitter, their love never ceased,

In the story of Isaac, a lesson released.
