I can taste the fruit of Eve.
I'm aware of sickness, death and disease.
The results of her choices were vast.
Eve was the first, but she wasn't the last.
If I were honest with myself,
had I been standing at that tree,
my mouth and my hands would be covered with fruit.
Things I shouldn't know and things I shouldn't see.
She taught us to fear the serpent.
I'm learning to fear myself
and all of the things I am capable of
in my search for wisdom, acceptance and wealth.
To say the devil made me do it is a cop-out and a lie.
The devil can't make me do anything when I'm calling on Jesus Christ.
Remind me of this with every decision.
Generations will reap what I sow.
I can pass on a curse or a blessing to those I will never know.
from this song, on this album. hope no one gets tired of sara groves. I never do!

I recently treated myself to a Sara Grove CD, on your recommendation alone. I love it! (The earworms from her oh-so-memorable songs, not so much.) :-)
hee hee. glad you are enjoying her, grammamack. just think, there are worse things you could have swirling around in your head!
Always loved this song.
Also love your picture. You and I need to get away to a beautiful, rocky beach with our kids and our cameras and just have a blast.
amen, sister. i'm there! (mentally, anyway)
