The sin of Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden brought a curse on not only men and women, but on nature itself. “And to Adam [God] said, cursed is the ground because of you; in pain you shall eat of it all the days of your life; thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you; and you shall eat the plants of the field” Genesis 3:17b-18 (ESV). Isaac Watts’ “Joy to the World,” speaks of the removing of God’s curse by the coming of Jesus.
