     1 Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? 2 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: 3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die. 4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: 5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.

     6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat. 7 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.(KJV)

1. I walk in danger all the way. 
The thought shall never leave me 
That Satan, who has marked his prey, 
Is plotting to deceive me. 
This foe with hidden snares 
May seize me unawares 
If e’er I fail to watch and pray. 
I walk in danger all the way. 

2. I pass through trials all the way, 
With sin and ills contending; 
In patience I must bear each day 
The cross of God’s own sending. 
Oft in adversity 
I know not where to flee; 
When storms of woe my soul dismay, 
I pass through trials all the way. 

3. Death doth pursue me all the way, 
Nowhere I rest securely; 
He comes by night, he comes by day, 
And takes his prey most surely. 
A failing breath, and I 
In death’s strong grasp may lie 
To face eternity for aye. 
Death dost pursue me all the way.
