Forever they were banished from their paradise
God passed through Eden's garden gates alone
But his compassion wrote the pages unfolding through the ages
of a love that remains the greatest ever known.
For God so loved that He gave His only Son
to suffer agony on a hill called Calvary
Heaven's mercy reached my heart and bore my pain
hope was born through sacred blood, for God so loved
Shouts of praise were heard throughout Jerusalem
as Jesus humbly passed through Zion's gates
Then the gloom of Calvary's sorrow dashed hopes of bright tomorrows
when the heart of the loving Father turned away
Hope was born through sacred blood, for God so loved
