Listen to poem:

Eli, Eli, Le Ma Sa Bach Tha Ni

Eden became a place of trespassing and disobedience
Love, however, never departed the Garden of Eden
I, The Everlasting God, have always had a plan

Eden became a place of trespassing and disobedience
Love, however, never departed the Garden of Eden
I, The Everlasting God, have always had a plan

Let all the world know that I love them
Everyone who believes shall be saved

My love is everlasting and measureless
All people are precious in my sight

Salvation was purchased by Christ's blood
Absolutely no one who truly believes is rejected

Believers have peace with God through Christ
At the cross is the place of the great triumph
Christ alone takes away the sins of the world
Hell itself was defeated by Christ on the cross

Tell the 'Good News' to everyone, everywhere
Heaven is a real place; not a dream or fairy tale
Access to God is obtained through Christ alone

Nothing shall separate us from the love of God
I will never leave you, nor ever forsake you
