Memories of Eden
Genesis 1-2, Romans 8:23
there's a memory of that place where the two communed with you face to face. i am restless, pressing toward that gate and the angel with flaming sword that bars our first home with you. but i will not be deterred, seeking perfect loved and a perfect world. adam fails me, and i grieve, yet i hope he still thinks i'm a perfect eve, like when we were home with you. but this ache cannot be quenched and i turn to you again and again, laying bare my wounds, my needs, knowing they will then at last be healed when i come home to you. no more weeping, no more pain; i am healed at last by my god's great name. how i'm longing for that day when this world will fade as i hear you say, "my child, come home to me." written by: katy wehr vocals: katy, al and paul guitars: paul long and sam long piano: katy wehr drums: mark shirley
