(Tempting)
(Tempting)
Lord, it is tempting
The fruit is tempting(Tempting, tempting, eat it)
Every time I turn away, I'm led astray(Tempting)
But I know if I have it I will be in dismay (Eat it)
Eat it, I will be cast away (Have it)
Lord if I take it, will I still be your son?
[Chorus]
Tempting, tempting, I hear the serpent call,
Whispers in the shadows, I stumble, I fall.
The fruit is sweet, but it poisons my soul,
One taste and I’ll lose it all, lose control.
[Verse]
I reach out my hand,
the garden holds its breath,
A single bite closer to sorrow,
to death.
The flavor’s like fire, it burns as I eat,
What once was complete is now incomplete.
[Chorus]
Tempting, tempting, I hear the serpent call (The serpent calls!),
Whispers in the shadows, I stumble, I fall.
The fruit is sweet, but it poisons my soul,
One taste and I’ll lose it all, lose control.
My eyes are opened, but innocence dies,
I hide from Your presence,
I cover with lies.
The weight of the fruit is a chain on my soul,
The cost of desire is heavy and cold.
[Chorus]
Tempting, tempting, I hear the serpent call (The serpent calls!),
Whispers in the shadows, I stumble, I fall.
The fruit is sweet, but it poisons my soul,
One taste and I’ll lose it all, lose control.
The weight of the fruit is a chain on my soul,
The cost of desire is heavy and cold.
