You are the Lord, infinite and mercy the first and last
You know all things before they ever come to pass
Your eyes see all things before they come to be
Yet your creation will desert you in an effort to be free
From the glory of your presence and the fellowship of light
They will prefer the darkness of a long eternal night
Man seeks to be sufficient as if he were enough
He will call his God a liar and disregard True love
In rebellion, he’ll serve other gods and the Lord he will deny
He’ll come to eat forbidden fruit, and on that day he shall die
Now man becomes a slave to Sin, the truth he will exchange
For the lie of the serpent and in sin he will remain
A broken image of God’s likeness bound in his mortal flesh
No longer shall he be able to mirror holiness
A great wall he’ll build and soon it becomes his tomb
A God shaped void none else can fill- for God there is no room
So withered now and hopeless in bondage to sin’s embrace
For all his work and all his plans, he failed to seek God’s grace
Then vanity of vanities, his creations become his king
He lives beneath his privilege and dreams of mundane things
