When She Gave Birth

Lyrics: Anna K. Jacobs/Michael R. Jackson Music: Anna K. Jacobs/Michael R. Jackson When she gave birth to sin and shame Two serpents crawled upon the earth They asked "what is our father's name?" She wept and claimed a virgin birth Come in the lake with me The lake? What? I know it sounds so crazy but I'm begging you let's baptize each other now so we can wash all of this sin and confusion away now! Tobey- I'm scared, Dawn! I've never been more terrified in my life! I never fully atoned for what I did with Denise and I think that's why I messеd up with you and why I'll keep messing up unless I deal with this now! Plеase. PLEASE Okay. Okay, yes. I'm with you. I love you. Let's do it When she gave birth to sin and shame Two serpents crawled upon the earth Let's hold up our hands. In the Old Testament we learn that original sin was born from Mother Eve when she allowed herself to be beguiled by the serpent I hold up my hands, God, I hold up my hands And tempted Adam, the first man with fruit from the tree of Knowledge - the very tree the Lord God had commanded them not to eat I hold up my hands, God, I hold up my hands And for their disobedience, sin entered the world and they were turned out of paradise forever But the New Testament tells us that we must be born again. Of the water and of the spirit So I, Tobey Zacharias Akin do solemnly vow to go forward and sin no more And I, Dawn Elizabeth O'Keefe do solemnly swear to go forward and sin no more. With this water, we do now purify. On the count of three. 1 ... 2 ... 3 ... When she gave birth to sin and shame Two serpents crawled upon the earth They asked "what is our father's name?" She wept and claimed a virgin birth Wow I feel so clean Jesus is so precious! Do you see what I mean now? Yes. This was such a good idea I don't want to lose this, Dawn Me neither So marry me Marry you? Yes. Become my wife, my helpmeet, my partner for life Oh, you're serious I am. Tomorrow when we go to Pastor, we can tell him and NTV that we've been born again together forever But we're still in school! And what will your parents say? And Tobey ... I don't know what kind of wife I could be to you because ... I have so much shame in my body. And modesty is one thing— Dawn, you don't think I have shame in my body too? But the shame is kind of a blessing. I think Father God puts shame in us to protect us until we meet our helpmeets who help us become who we're meant to be You really think so? I know so. But there can't be any daylight between us on this, Dawn, or it won't work. I care about you. I love you, I want you. Please marry me Yes Yes. Yes! Yes! Yes! My wife! My wife! Your wife! Your wife! Therefore, shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. Husband. Wife Husband. Wife Take off your promise ring Now? One flesh, Dawn. But only if you- No, I do. I do Hearing you say I do is like music to my ears. Come here It's kind of cold all of a sudden. Are you cold? No Ah, now something's poking me in the back Shhh Sorry I'm removing the barriers between us now, okay? Now I'm really cold “Husbands, love your wives as Christ loved the church.” That's all I want to do, wife That's all I want too Listen to the wind rustling through the trees. Look at the stars. Feel the warmth between Us Hey Tobey, do you think— Father God is smiling down on us What if someone sees us— The way he smiled on Solomon and his beloved Yeah, but we are pretty out in the open here— What a blessing you are to me! What a precious gift! Precious gift, precious gift, precious gift, precious gift Breathe into me, wife. Breathe into me. Breathe into me. Breathe into me. Yes Tobey, I have a cramp Feel me, Dawn. Merge with me and let my love envelop—I can't feel my legs—and edify you and sweet Father God I feel like I'm gonna pass out And it came to pass—Why can't I feel my legs?— that Tobey saw there a daughter of Eden whose name was Dawn. —Tobey please, please And he took her and he went in unto her And he took her and he went in unto her— Tobey, stop— And he took her and he went in unto her—Tobey, Tobey— Tobey you're hurting— And he took her— Ahhhhhhhhhhh!
