032 Dear Eve

Dear Eve, I am writing to remind you of the truth
You need to be careful as you gaze upon the fruit
That tree is the only one that God’s forbidden you
You’re free, you have everything you need
Better guard your heart from greed

And walk by faith
No matter what he’s saying
You just walk by faith
Trusting and obeying
Each and every day
Who you gonna love?
Is the Serpent on your side?
Or is your Father kind?
You must decide who to trust

Dear eve, there’s an order to creation full of peace
You’ll see, for it’s God, and then it’s Adam, then it’s Eve
Oh Eve, and below you is the serpent at your feet
So please, don’t you turn it all around
Throwing God right to the ground

But walk by faith
No matter what their saying
You just walk by faith
Trusting and obeying
Each and every day
Who you gonna love?
Is the Serpent on your side?
Or is your Father kind?
You must decide who to trust

It’s not about the fruit now is it?
It’s all about relationship
We put an animal above
The God who showed us love
What is wrong, what is wrong with us?

And Eve when you’re deceived
You don’t know you’re deceived
Twisted words inside your mind
Your own eyes will leave you blind
So be strong, oh be strong and trust
Oh be strong, oh be strong and trust

And walk by faith
No matter what he’s saying
You just walk by faith
Trusting and obeying Each and every day
Oh who you gonna love?
Is the Serpent on your side?
Or is your Father kind?
You must decide who to trust

Now the serpent was more crafty than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, “Indeed, has God said, ‘You shall not eat from any tree of the garden’?” The woman said to the serpent, “From the fruit of the trees of the garden we may eat; but from the fruit of the tree which is in the middle of the garden, God has said, ‘You shall not eat from it or touch it, or you will die.’” The serpent said to the woman, “You surely will not die! 5“For God knows that in the day you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” When the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was desirable to make one wise, she took from its fruit and ate; and she gave also to her husband with her, and he ate.
