Temptation Comes

They had a perfect life, so sweet,
With every fruit that they could eat,
But one small rule was set that day,
One simple command — just OBEY!

The serpent came with crafty grin,
To spark a thought of pride within.
God lied to you, take one big bite,
And that’s how truth slipped out of sight.

Temptation comes in sly disguise,
It feeds the heart with pretty lies.
But love for God will help us see,
Obedience keeps our hearts free.

They ate the fruit, it seemed so small,
But that one choice affected all.
The garden home was left behind,
A loss that stayed within their mind.

They had it all, yet wanted more,
That one wrong choice they can’t ignore.
Their hearts felt heavy, truth was clear,
They lost what once was bright and near.

Temptation comes in sly disguise,
It feeds the heart with pretty lies.
But love for God will help us see,
Obedience keeps our hearts free.

They pointed fingers left and right,
Excuses flying through the night.
But truth was clear — no place to run,
They both had learned what’s done is done.

He made them doubt the love they knew,
And claimed that God had hid the view.
They thought their plan would bring them great,
Their pride had shut — the garden gate.

Temptation comes in sly disguise,
It feeds the heart with pretty lies.
But love for God will help us see,
Obedience keeps our hearts free.

A lesson learned for us today,
Don’t twist what God is meant to say.
They had lost their eternal right, 
They gave up life for one quick bite.

We don’t like rules, that much is true,
But God made me, and God made you.
We think we know what’s best each day,
Then trip and learn a harder way.

Temptation comes in sly disguise,
It feeds the heart with pretty lies.
But love for God will help us see,
Obedience keeps our hearts free.

(Bridge)
We all can slip, we all can fall,
By something small that tempts us all.
Our love for God will guide our way,
Obedience grows when hearts obey.

Temptation comes in sly disguise,
It feeds the heart with pretty lies.
But love for God will help us see,
Obedience keeps our hearts free.
Temptation comes in sly disguise,
It feeds the heart with pretty lies.
But love for God will help us see,
Obedience keeps our hearts free.
But love for God will help us see,
Obedience keeps our hearts free.
