Drop Your Knife and Hurry, Man
Parody of "Rock You Like a Hurricane" by The Scorpions
(Genesis 22:1-19, Hebrews 11:17-19, Micah 6:7-8, John 1:29-35)
It's early morning -- his son comes out
But has no inkling what this is about
A dead-end journey, a sacrifice planned
So what is wrong here? There's not a lamb
A precious offering he needs to kill
He never flinches - it's the Lord's will
He takes his knife and raises it slow
But God relieves Him in time and says no!
Abraham - drop your knife and hurry, man
Abraham - God will find a perfect lamb
By studied learning - we found this out
Messiah's coming - through Isaac's child
From indications - the Lord gave clues
He'll send a savior which some will refuse
The prophets called it - I have the scrolls
That the Lord gave us to read very long ago
Please listen to this - be ready for Him
We're the ones He'll die for - sufferin' for sin
Abraham - drop your knife and hurry, man (Are you ready, Abram?)
Abraham - modify your current plan
Abraham - don't kill Isaac; search again (C'mon, c'mon, Abram!)
Abraham - God will find a perfect lamb
God will find a perfect lamb!
LEAD
It's early morning -- the Son comes out
His life they're takin' -- there's never a doubt
The whip is whirring -- it slashes Christ's skin
So what is wrong here? He never sinned
Messiah told me He had to go
To the cross of Calv'ry - His blood must flow
He's takin' His licks - He's ready to win
On a cross He's planned for from the first sin
Abraham - God supplied a perfect lamb (Are you ready, Abram?)
Abraham - God supplied a perfect lamb
Abraham - God supplied a perfect lamb (C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon)
Abraham - God supplied a perfect lamb
Abraham!
