The Fall of Grace Lyrics
In the garden where peace was found,
The serpent came without a sound.
Whispered lies to lead astray,
A heart’s decision paved the way.
Chorus
Oh, the fall of grace, the breaking dawn,
A paradise lost, but hope lives on.
Through every tear and every cry,
Your mercy waits, You will provide.
Verse 2
The fruit was sweet, the choice was made,
A bond was broken, a debt to be paid.
Eyes were opened, shame took its place,
Hiding from love, hiding from grace.
Chorus
Oh, the fall of grace, the breaking dawn,
A paradise lost, but hope lives on.
Through every tear and every cry,
Your mercy waits, You will provide.
Bridge
From dust to dust, the curse was cast,
But even here, Your love will last.
A Savior promised, a holy plan,
To redeem the hearts of fallen man.
Verse 3
Exiled from Eden, the gates were closed,
But through the darkness, Your light still glows.
A flaming sword guards what was pure,
But Your promises remain ever sure.
Chorus
Oh, the fall of grace, the breaking dawn,
A paradise lost, but hope lives on.
Through every tear and every cry,
Your mercy waits, You will provide.
Outro
The fall of grace, but love remains,
Through trials, loss, and growing pains.
A future bright, redemption near,
Your voice of hope, we’ll always hear.
