• Oh, Eden!

Oh Tell me the tale, O my Father, of the Garden that lit up the East
How the God of our people created the world, and said that it was good.
Sing me the song of the Spirit who brooded the birth of the earth
The voice of the seas and the sunlight rang clean out across the meadows

CHORUS
Oh Eden! Unbroken hearts in the heart of our God
Our Father, our Maker loved from the dawn of the world

My heart breaks to hear the old story, I ache with the call of my home
For the beauty of God and the love that we had, I’ve heard that it was good
My brokenness flames up before me, this treasonous heart bent in toil
The sword of the truth cleaves the branch from the root, my soul is lost in sorrow

CHORUS
Oh Eden! Our treason fed us the fruit of decay
Our Father, we hunger for bread that will not pass away

The daughters and sons of the Father, wander now naked and shamed
The blessings reversed by the thorn of the curse, creation mourns it still
A promise sped out like the morning, bright came the word from his mouth
A son would be born and the curse be undone, give flight to fallen sparrows

CHORUS
Oh Eden! We have been working to make our own name
Our Father, we have so shadowed your image in shame

TAG:
All things made good, all things so broken now
God ever true, ever we hope in you
