Aaronic
Parody of "Ironic" by Alanis Morissette
(Hebrews 5:1-11, 7:11, 9:11-15, 10:11-12; Exodus 28:1; Leviticus 9:1-24)
And old man learned kinda late
He was about to be the high priest of the faith
He had sacrifices that were hard to make
And they kept old Aaron too busy to think
This song is Aaronic – don't you think?
But Christ came with a better way
To redeem us -- and He already paid
With a sacrifice that we just couldn't make
And who else but God was big enough?
Mr. A. himself was a faithful guy
He acted to erase the sins of Israelites
He made it his goal in life to make them right
But as he soon found out
The cost of sin was too high
And this song is Aaronic – don't you think?
CHORUS
Well, Christ had the final way
Of making atonement for the sins everyone had made
Whenever He was crucified
And Christ is the only way
Of helping you out ‘cause you see everyone's done wrong
And everyone screws up every day
The perfect lamb and He's already slain
A more holy priest to rise in Melchizedek's place
The lives of 10,000 bulls and all the sheep ain't enough
It's Jesus, the man without sin
We needed His beautiful blood
Yes, our sin was chronic – don't you think?
A ittle too Bubonic – oh yeah, I really do think
CHORUS
Christ is the only way – He's speaking now to you
Christ is the only, only way
Of helping you out, helping you out
Hebrews 10:11-12
Day after day every priest stands and performs his religious duties; again
and again he offers the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. But
when this priest had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, he sat down
at the right hand of God.
