At Haran is where your story started
God said He'll make you great nation, go and you'll be blessed
Because of fear you told Pharaoh Sarah was your sister
God inflected serious disease to get you out of your distress
Resolving a quarrel, you and Lot separated
God said your offspring will be as many as dust can be counted
After rescuing Lot, you won war after war
God promised He's your shield and your very great reward
Hagar bore you Ishmael and Sarah bore you Issac
God asked you to let go of one and sacrifice the other
And you live a good old age of one hundred and seventy five
God blessed you, your son Isaac and his generations to come
Many things from your story I could learn
One that's most obvious, in your life God's always in the picture
An acrostic based on the Genesis 12-25
