ELEAZAR CALL

Oh get ready evening shadows 
fall
Can\'t you hear the Eleazar calling
We have come into this wedding and
our joy is now in Him
In the evening when the camel
trains come in.

It was a day in the early spring time
By an ancient wayside well
Eleazer paused to rest his camel train
He found a bride for Isaac as the
evening shadows fell
For his weary journey had not been
in vain

So he took a fair Rebecca like
we do it now and then
To Abraham and Isaac far away
Now Rebecca loved her Isaac and
he loved Rebecca too
Oh it must have been a happy wedding
day

Now the blessed Holy Spirit from our
Father God above
Has come down to earth to find a
worldly Bride
And our Isaac over yonder has prepared
the tents of love
And He wants His fair Rebecca
by His side

Now we left our kinfold gladly and we
bade this world goodbye
We are going to a Home beyond the sky
Where we\'ll soon behold our Isaac in that
blessed eternity
Oh what a happy happy wedding that
will be

All things ready now the evening
shadows fell
Can\'t you hear the Eleazer calling
We have come into this wedding and
our joy is now in Him
And the Bridegroom bids His lovely
Bride come in

Oh get ready evening shadows fall
Can\'t you hear the Eleazar calling
We have come into this wedding and
our joy is now in Him
And the Bridegroom bids His lovely Bride
come in
