Evan Geistfeld - Brothers In Strife Lyrics

In the dawn of creation where the firstborn sons arose
Two brothers in the fields where life and love once flowed
Cain tilled the ground and Abel kept the sheep
In the heart of Eden's children their faith ran deep
To the altar they came with offerings in hand
Seeking God's favor by His holy command
Cain and Abel two brothers in strife
Seeking the blessings of the Giver of life
In a world so new where choices were made
One heart grew dark while the other obeyed
Abel's sacrifice pure with faith so bright
Found favor in God's eyes a pleasing sight
But Cain's heart was troubled with envy's cruel sting
In the shadow of his brother his anger did cling
God spoke to Cain a warning in His voice
"Sin is crouching at your door make the righteous choice"
Cain and Abel two brothers in strife
Seeking the blessings of the Giver of life
In a world so new where choices were made
One heart grew dark while the other obeyed
In the fields alone where silence grew cold
Cain struck down Abel a story foretold
From the ground his blood cried justice to the skies
God's voice called out "Where is your brother's life?"
For in the tale of sorrow God's love prevails
Through the darkest valleys His grace never fails
Cain and Abel two brothers in strife
Seeking the blessings of the Giver of life
In a world so new where choices were made
One heart grew dark while the other obeyed
From the first spilled blood to Calvary's tree
God's plan of redemption for you and for me
Through the lineage of Abel and mercy for Cain
God's love eternal forever will reign
Cain and Abel two brothers in strife
Seeking the blessings of the Giver of life
In a world so new where choices were made
One heart grew dark while the other obeyed
In a world of choices may our hearts stay true
Seeking God's favor in all that we do
In a world of choices may our hearts stay true
Seeking God's favor in all that we do
