But in Eden we sinned; we really blew it.
We disobeyed God’s direct decree;
We separated from Him, and we knew it.
But through all time, we just kept doing it;
Piling wrong on top of wrong,
Our punishment—we kept accruing it.
He paid the price for all our sins;
When we repent and believe in Him,
We change, and a better life begins.
For us to choose to put things right;
If we repent, and really believe,
Our record is polished clean and bright.
He guaranteed our eternal life,
Reunited with God in heaven,
Free from tears and fears and strife.
For all of us, for you and me;
We’re reconciled to our Lord and King
For now and all eternity.
