Say So and Back to Eden

Let’s review the song lyrics by Israel and New Breed “{Let the redeemed of the Lord} Say So”(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McmUHclV9do):
What does it mean to be saved? Isn't it more than just a prayer to pray? More than just a way to heaven? What does it mean to be His? To be formed in his likeness? Know that we have a purpose. {What is our purpose?} To be salt and light in the world!
What does that mean? Well, salt adds flavor to food and light dominates the darkness. That is our purpose in life, to be a burning and a shining light. How do we do that? By acting like small g “gods” – we were formed in his likeness. This does not mean we look like Him, but that we were created spirit beings because He is Spirit. How do you do that? Say so! Speak a thing and it will be established!
Now so that you know I don’t make this stuff up, let me show you where I got it from:

What was the original design? Let’s take it back, all the way back.. Back to EdenLyrics by Donald Lawrence (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqUF9xKpqNI)
When God made man, He made a spirit
It was His plan that we live blessed
The tempter came we were distracted
The tempter came and we fell
We were deemed to live a life that's beautiful; a life that's full; a life that's rich and plentiful
It is my goal to remind you of this principle
You're redeemed; a newborn soul
Let's get back to Eden; live on top of the world

Well now it's time we change our thinking
Know our design, our Father's plan
Oh yes it's time, we get back to kingdom
Now is the time, we take our stand
We were deemed to live a life that's beautiful; a life that's full; a life that's rich and plentiful
It is my goal to remind you of this principle
We're redeemed; a newborn soul
Let's get back to Eden; live on top of the world

Our families blessed; finances blessed
Our mind and spirit; our bodies blessed
We were tempted and we fell
Jesus came now all is well
Let's get back to Eden; live on top of the world
