For God so loved the world He gave His only Son
That whosoever believes in Him might live
And Jesus loved us so He gave His life for us
The secret of loving is to give
(chorus)
It's not a new idea
We've known it all along
But someone else keeps singing us
An old familiar song
It says to strive, accomplish, aquire and achieve
That's the same old apple that tempted Eve
The Lord said humble yourself and I will lift you up
Exalt yourself and I will bring you down
Be boastful not of yourself, the only pride you need
Is in your relationship with Me
(ending)
The same old rotten apple that tempted Eve
And we still bite the apple that tempted Eve
