Before your story about Adam,
and your tale about Eve.
Before the mountains and the valleys,
long before the deep blue sea.
When there were no seasons,
no sun nor moon above.
I was here before everything,
I Am Eternal Love.
You tried to run and hide from me,
though you'd never seen my face.
So afraid of my glory,
so afraid of my grace.
You worshiped many idols,
you put them high above.
But lasting peace can not be found,
without Eternal Love.
And when you've fought all your battles,
and there's no one left to fight.
When the night becomes day,
and the day becomes night.
When you return to ashes,
and you return to dust,
I am all that will remain,
I am Eternal Love.
*A simple Bluegrass song I wrote many years ago.
