God breathed His Spirit into the very first man
and then Adam his new life in Paradise began.
But sin came along and entered into his soul
Now all men need to turn to Christ to be made whole.
To our fathers who correct us we pay respect
and to the Father of our Spirits are subject
obeying His word and in repentance submit
and He will forgive all the sins that we commit.
But God disciplines us for our eternal good
and He cares for us far more than our fathers could
This discipline though painful and not appealing
leads to our righteousness and to our healing.
