Verse 1 In the garden of the morning, when the world was still and clean, A serpent spoke in shadows, twisting truth into a dream. He never showed his face, just a whisper in the leaves, And Eve heard something clever that was meant to make her leave. Chorus Now the serpents live in wires, in the glow of every screen, Typing lies in hidden places where their faces can’t be seen. And they hiss against the church, saying “Did God really say?” But the Shepherd knows His children, and He calls us back His way. Opposition came from the serpent — but freedom came from God. The serpent meant to bind us — God used him to set choice free. Verse 2 He questioned what was spoken, turned the truth a subtle shade, Promised wisdom without reverence, offered light that only fades. And the voices now are many, but the tactic’s still the same— Cast a doubt, distort a promise, then set fire to God’s name. Chorus Now the serpents live in wires, in the glow of every screen, Typing lies in hidden places where their faces can’t be seen. And they hiss against the church, saying “Did God really say?” But the Shepherd knows His children, and He calls us back His way. Opposition came from the serpent — but freedom came from God. The serpent meant to bind us — God used him to set choice free. Bridge Some speak with holy anger, some pretend they know the truth, Some are wolves dressed up as prophets, preying hard on searching youth. But the voice that walked in Eden still is walking here today— Not in whispers of confusion, but in love that lights the way. Final Chorus Let the serpents keep on hissing from the shadows where they hide, We will stand upon the promise that no lie can override. For the Word is still the Word, and the truth will never bend— And the garden’s God of mercy walks beside us to the end. Opposition came from the serpent — but freedom came from God. The serpent meant to bind us — God used him to set choice free.
