Hazakim, Lil Animus - Full Circle lyrics

Abraham would've wanted less of a test
Isaac was his only beloved -
The flesh of his flesh
An odd request, but how would this mesh
If he was "the son of the
Promise" - destined and blessed?
Strange could Abraham have an offspring?
If Adonai wanted Isaac to be an offering?
How he was feeling inside was
Hard for him to describe
To have to give up his son
Yet still he trusted in God
With two of his guys &
Plenty food and supplies
Traveled throughout the night
Pretty soon they arrived
On the third day Abraham lifted his eyes
As he surveyed the mountains on every side
It came time, God gave him a sign
The men who accompanied him stayed behind
He grabbed the knife and
Fire for mountain Moriah
Isaac carried the lumber his
Father supplied him isaac asked
"where's the Lamb for the sacrifice?"
Then his Dad replied
"The Lord himself said he would provide it"
Bound Isaac - laced with chords
Placed the wood out in order
- arranged the boards
Laid Isaac on the altar - prayed to the Lord
Raised his knife for the slaughter
- then came a voice
"Don't touch your Son, your beloved one
You have overcome, now your job is done"
In the thorn bush was a
Ram caught in a thicket hugs his Son
The curtain draws for intermission

It’s like a foreshadow – you already know
What was and is and is to come
Messiah – we lift you higher
Round and round, full circle
That’s why I will trust you
Round and round, full circle
That’s why I will trust you

The curtain re-opens the site is a tragedy
A battered anatomy Messiah in agony
Before the Sanhedrin they charge
Him with blasphemy
Bound with chords while they beat him
- this prophecy had to be
T’was the Roman Government that
Summoned the bludgeoning
Ordered the execution, the ultimate suffering
It's the unfolding drama
This time a changed scene
Son submit's to his Father
Clearly the same theme
The sovereign promise given on Mount Moriah
Now on the hill of Golgotha
Fulfilled in the Messiah
Adorned with a crown just for an added touch
With thorns on his brow like
The Ram in the Bush
Laid the wood out in order
By the roman soldiers
In similar fashion he carried the
Wood upon his shoulders
The prophets described his soul
As being an offering
Like Isaac the Father's beloved
And the Only Begotten
Understand it was part of His plan
God didn't promise a ram said
He'd provide him a lamb yeshua - Lamb of God
Spread out upon the altar - hanging high
We see the Holy Father raise up His knife
Killing his Only Begotten taking his life
And in the same way Isaac's
Life had been saved it was on the third day
Yeshua had been raised
Full Circle like a carousel - parallel
Dean's List
Honor Roll - his word never fails

It’s like a foreshadow – you already know
What was and is and is to come
Messiah – we lift you higher
Round and round, full circle
That’s why I will trust you
Round and round, full circle
That’s why I will trust you

The Lord is faithful, He’ll keep His promise
The Lamb was slain and I’m free from bondage
Like it was prophesied, Lamb of God died
Then He rose gave the Spirit
As a down payment
So we can trust Him with our lives
And we can be ever sure His
Blood is powerful to save us
Despite all the pain that we face –
Yeah it's tough in this race
But we can trust in His grace
He took all our shame and disgrace
When He hung in our place
Our guilt His love can erase
Round and round it’s full circle
– this we can know
His burden is rest for the soul
And His promise – His promise is sure
He’s honest and holy, He got us
Will not let us go
So we trust in Him and just Him
Forever, never will lie because
The Lord’s faithful

Messiah – we lift you higher
