Did HE Really Say?

I watch them in the garden So innocent and clean A kingdom full of mourning A world I meant to steal

I did not come with thunder I did not bare my teeth I only bent the question And whispered through the leaves

Did he really say? Did he really say? One little doubt Can turn the heart away

She saw the fruit was lovely He stood and watched it fall Their eyes were opened slowly And shame came over all

They covered up with leaves They hid among the trees I thought I heard creation bowing down to me Did he really say, did he really say

One little doubt can turn the heart away guitar solo the shade. He called them out of hiding and named what they had made. Dust upon the man, pain within the womb. I smiled beneath the branches till he spoke my doom.

Then I heard the promise and I knew And I knew Her seed will come Her seed will rise

He will crush my head Though I strike his heel I thought the throne was stolen, I thought the light was gone But mercy had a weapon, hidden in her sun

I left the garden trembling, with poison in my pride For the child of the woman Would come to end my life Did he really say

Do not turn away One little doubt Can lead the soul astray I whispered in the garden

But the promise answered me The seed would crush the serpent And set the captives free
