The Fall
So easily are we lead astray
From truth that's been revealed
The Fall hath made us vulnerable
To follow that which kills
And not just follow but adore
So great our blindness is
As trinkets treat we 'ternal Truth
And in truth seek ignorance
And ignorance, our mighty shield
Deploy we through the day
And then we count it great success
To 'ave kept the Lord at bay
But worry not the Word's afoot
Alone He'll leave us never
If little drips awake us not
Then He'll unleash a river
And in the chaos that ensues
When we are gripped in fear
The Lord awaits to welcome us
And draw us ever near
