When God had rested he looked over the world he created and mankind for which he had made. The creature of the skies above and those that lived below happy were they as they played. Under the forbidden tree they laid they found themselves seduced by evil in the shade. For the worlds first time rain did fall - when God had seen that he had been betrayed. Cast forever from their garden paradise, to live in the wild untamed earth For man to toil and labor, and women to suffer the pain of child birth The gates of eden sealed forever more, gaurded by fiery hosts of heaven Along with the memory of days of past which number seven Ever since we have believed that God had given up on man. We were an afterthought; a mistake; a glitch in the master plan. We bought into what Lucifer wanted us to believe; which is where it all began The fallen now took wives, giving birth to nephilim, the flames of hell we did fan Passion and vices unto which man did fall The greatest of virtues we destroyed one and all he sent his son to shed his blood, heading the fathers call Our souls he did save that fateful day, on a hill on a cross that stood so tall. For his gift of eternal life, we as men have shared mortal strife Wars we have made in his name taking innocent life Our own lust for power guides us away from his loving light Putting man before God, not even knowing it isn't right For the truth of it be told, the evil that men do can not be undone We look to place blame; he is not the one He loved us so - he gave the life of his only son The truth is he didn't leave us - we were the ones left him abandoned
