Isaac Man
Parody of "Ice Cream Man" by Van Halen
(Genesis 17,  John 6:37)

Dedicate one to the babies!  In Genesis 17, Abraham was gettin’ old
Ah now, Genesis 17, Abraham was gettin’ old
But he didn’t have a child quite the way God said that he would ...  but he finally did
I’m the Isaac man; Poppa was 99 (repeat)
When the Lord told Abram that Sarah and he’d have a child
Well, the Lord said to Sarah, “Did you laugh? This baby’ll be your son, too!"
I'm the Isaac man; Poppa was 99 ...
Well, the Lord said Abram, “I’m gonna make Sarah a mom. She’ll have a son! (Repeat)
"and if you listen to Me, Abram, there’ll be a nation to come
Well, one day it happened; there I was! The promise of the Lord came true
I'm the Isaac man; Poppa was 99 ...
They say all God's babies are guaranteed to come in time

Genesis 17:19
Then God said, "Yes, but your wife Sarah will bear you a son, and you will call him Isaac. I will establish my covenant with him as an everlasting covenant for his descendants after him.
