The Moment the World Died
Disobedience is such an awful thing
it says no to what is indeed right
but the first act of such disobedience
brought about full darkness of the night
The world died at that moment
when Eve the first woman took that fruit
and as scripture declares she ate
sin then entered this world at it's root
But she wasn't blameworthy on her own
Adam took the fruit he indeed ate
so those two brought this world down
for sin to rule making such awful state
Since that day mankind has sinned
every day so many times it's done
but refuse to admit they're at fault
blaming all else except self bar none
But only God can open blind eyes
sin cursed eye lids unable to see
showing that His son paid sins price
so from sins curse Jesus sets free
('So 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 to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate, and she also gave some to her husband who was with her, and he ate.')
Genesis 3: 6 (ESV)
