Concerning Paradise
we can’t go back again
said Adam to Eve
There’s Cain, there’s Abel
We’ll start all over again
Make it good this time
Abel’s dead by Cain’s hand
Paradise lies unattained
Eve said, my garden’s now a grave
Something greater lies ahead
Pride and death no more a stain
On this broken earth
With their dying eyes they saw
A bridge to life regained
The Son lifted up, reconciling God and man
