Sin came here through one man,
And death came from the sin;
But God did have a plan,
To purify within.
For death did spread to all,
Since everyone sinned;
Adam had the downfall,
Man was not disciplined.
Sin was here on the earth,
Before God set up laws;
Giving evil its birth,
Causing man to get flaws.
But no record of sin,
Kept when there was no law;
And it had to begin,
When Moses got the call.
Adam had disobeyed,
Looked like the one to born;
Even though Adam strayed,
Jesus not when sojourn.
Nothing for to compare,
Between Adam and gift;
The love of God to share,
Gives a way to uplift.
If humanity died,
Because of one failure;
Then God would not tried
For sending a Savior.
For the kindness of God,
Showered us a blessing;
Since Christ was never flawed,
A path for accessing.
The verdict which followed,
From a one man failure;
Condemned as we sorrowed,
Searching for a Savior.
The gift from God removes,
Corruption causing sin;
As confession approves,
For purifying within.
