A SEASON IN EDEN
When I look back down in life's memory
And I thought of the Adam and Eve story
I considered that man was clothed in glory
But to the taste of a fruit man lost his clothes
Shame stepped in, man sought leaves for cloth
The sound of feet drove him to hide
It was that season once in Eden
Why life for man is, as is
It shouldn't have happened, yet it did
Man to live forever is still just a bid
He was deceived by the evil one
Then live for man was lost once
He was beguiled by evil in disguise
God went in the evening to reason, but....
It was that season once in Eden
Why life for man is, as is
One is wise His name is God
When you are sad He will be your Dad
If you've done wrong don't try to hide
But, by His side run to abide
By wisdom He re-clothed man
The Lord used skin then to cover sin
It was that season once in Eden
Why life for man is, as is.
