Brandon Heath - Leaving Eden - Lyrics

Brandon Heath - Leaving Eden (Title track)

Lyrics:

Headlines read like a warning, we're under attack
I just waved to a stranger, he didn't wave back
And if it weren't for my TV, I wouldn't know what is real
My doctor can't do a thing for how I feel

Feels like I'm leaving Eden
Feels like I'm leaving Eden

People are losing their homes to hurricanes
Old lady living next door forgot her own name
Teacher is hiding her Bible, but at least she's got a job
My local Salvation Army just got robbed

Feels like I'm leaving Eden
Feels like I'm leaving Eden
It's like I'm further away with every step I take
And I can't go back
'Cause I'm leaving Eden

I'm going, going home
I'm going, going home
There's no place, no place like home
There's no place, no place like home

When you're leaving Eden
When you're leaving Eden
It's like I'm further away with every step I take
And I can't go back
'Cause I'm leaving, leaving Eden

thumbs up if you heard this on K-LOVE!

[Kentuckyhillbillyboy]

You realise what he's sayin right?

Our land,nation,generation our culture is leaving the Godly way of life it once cherished and knew in the past and now our Nation is growing dark and cold on God

It's an awesome song but such a sad comentary on the times we are living in

Still... Looking forward to going home

Hope I can hold on....

And stand firm till the end.

[WesternEasternTruth]

We need an instrumental for this song! Anyone up to the challenge? If you can make one or find one, I'll do it for my school's talent show... my school of 1400 students!

[WesternEasternTruth]

@Kentuckyhillbillyboy Amen to that. Hold strong, because we are all in this together, even when we feel alone.

[sillybands101ful]

Made me cry. And love this song

[topcityres]

The enemy knows that time is running out. They are speeding up their plans and intentions. But GOD is pouring out his spirit right now!! MORE and MORE!! Thank you Jesus!! Oh man it's so amazing!! Acts 2:17

@Kentuckyhillbillyboy

Well said brother. When "we" were banished from Eden, it became a different day altogether. And it seems we have never learned from that point how to change and get right with God. We still have some time to learn though and prepare for that great day when our Lord returns.

[topcityres]

Made me cry. Thank you Jesus so much.

[kiefercatg]

@Kentuckyhillbillyboy It is a sad commentary on the times we are living in, but it was foretold centuries ago and if you are a believer than you know that nothing will change what is to come. It only gets worse before it gets better.

[sniffdogma]

Oh ya: "Teacher is hiding her Bible, but at least she's got a job." Keep your heads up people; some people aren't afraid to be who they really are.

[freckledklutz]

This is both a battle cry and a sense of longing its beautiful. It reminds me that I need to be the salt and light and I can't lose our flavour or my radiance in God. We have to shine brightly and love and serve all the while waiting patiently to be with jesus in our true home love this song and god bless brandon heath for his insight :)

[RonnieLola]

I've always heard good things about this song... I was only familiar with his "What If We" album.

This isn't bad! I should listen to it a few more times until I completely understand and have a heart for it. :>
