How did this perfectly choreographed dance become an unhappy brawl
God’s original design, woman and man, created in His glorious image
But deceived by darkness, desiring to be God-like, ever wanting it all
We are condemned to toil and pain because of this sin-filled heritage
But not only their transgressions, what of our own unrighteousness
Fullness of pride, lust, and deceit, dragging us into the deepest abyss
Always wanting more than what we have to mend our heart’s brokenness
Needing acceptance and love, languishing all alone in our emptiness
What if there is more to our lives, what if there is a second chance
Do we have to accept this world’s false pretenses that cannot satisfy
There is one, God’s only Son, who came to restore the promised dance
Unfailing Love that gave up heaven for a cruel cross to suffer and die
How can it be, such holiness and mercy, are meant for you and me?
