685. Born of Adam, torn from Eden

Author: Hilary Jolly

Born of Adam, torn from eden,
child of exile and the flood,
I was born again in Jesus,
crowned with glory through his blood.

2. Though creation lies in shackles,
forged on Satan’s anvil grim,
there is freedom yet in Jesus
and redemption is in him.

3. Would you see the new day dawning,
healing all creation’s loss?
Look into the face of Jesus,
fix your eyes upon the cross.

4. Listen ever for the trumpet,
O, you children of new birth,
for he comes to rule in triumph,
his new heaven, his new earth.
