Adam in Eden when God to him spoke
Foolishly sinned and God’s covenant broke.
Wherefore our hearts now are shackled – not free,
Lacking to God’s Law in conformity
Holy commandments God gave us to know
When we’re amiss in the way we should go.
Daily God’s precepts we carelessly break
Even while sleeping, much more when awake!
