RETURN AGAIN MY RIGHTEOUSNESS
O to Eden I would
Once again return
To the age of my youth
Wilt thou grant this desire
Of my heart, O Lord
Harken unto me
My little one
You have left the garden
For good
And it is gone from thy sight
Forever
But, do not sorrow
Nor wallow in sin
Yea, rather, Rejoice, Rejoice
For the kingdom of God
Is within you
The garden
Was but a way station
For your eternal home
Has always been my home
I have prepared
A place for you
Return again my righteousness
Return again my little one
Return again unto me
