Lyrics
Adam and Eve were given a garden
A special place to call their very own
God said I will give you My garden
But you know you have to leave this one tree alone
But a serpent came an awful snake
A temptation that couldn’t wait
His desire to be like God could not be
Chorus:
‘Cause God knows what’s best for His children
God knows what’s best after all
God knows what’s best for His children
Even when His children take a fall
God knows what’s best after all
So God sent them out of the garden
They disobeyed and ate of the tree
Then Adam had to work there was no freedom
Eve had to labor with her family
If they hadn’t taken that one bite
They could have turned from wrong to do right
We should never turn from God’s light.
(Repeat Chorus)
