God is just like any loving concerned parent

Who sits in heaven looking down on his heirs apparent

His children no two alike in spiritual appearance

Unable to hear His message of love due to evil's interference

Perhaps it's because we're just content to remain earthbound

Mesmerized by this old planet and its blood soaked ground

Where man has sort Shangri-La's peace but it has yet to be found

Not exactly what God intended when he laid earth's foundation down

Before the fall of Adam it was a far place

A cradle of life designed for the building human race

Where God could come down and talk to His children face to face

Having given Adam authority to wear creation's crown with dignity and grace

Just think there were no problems, no need to pray

The devil had not yet with man had his way

But Adam chose to give his God given authority away

To the devil under whose weight of evil we stagger to this very day

It was way back in the garden that our spirits began to atrophy

Slowly losing our spiritual ability to hear and see

Into God's heavenly realm where Jesus holds redemption's keys

Ever interceding for us from the chains of darkness to be freed

That's why God's love pierced earth's darkness just in time

To rescue all of us who had become in spirit deaf and blind

In the form of Jesus who on the cross would sacrifice himself for mankind

Substituting His righteousness for ours which was far superior by design

Jesus became the second Adam who didn't sin and got it right

Destroying the works of the devil intent on killing us out of spite

For without Jesus' intervention we were barely able to put up a fight

Until Jesus came down to save us having seen the magnitude of our plight
