Come and Have New Birth
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

COME AND HAVE NEW BIRTH

When it is well with our soul
Then we can truly sing
Praises to our God above
Who is the King of Kings
Easily the words they come
They seem to draw us along
As hymns of faith we contemplate
And heart bursts forth in song

Hallelujahs and Amens
Are sung along as well
As tears of joy, flood our faces
We, the redeemed from Hell
The joy of the Lord is our strength
Old satan cannot stand
The sounds of saints singing praises
About old  Glory Land

I hear those choirs of angels singing
Worthy is the Lamb
Around the throne of God they're bringing
Glory, to the Great I Am
Music born in the Heavenliess
Sent down to us on earth
Giving forth an invitation to men
Come and have New Birth

About the Poet
I came to know the Lord as my personal Saviour in January of 1972. I was married on Oct 21,1966 to my wife Linda who also loves the Lord. We have ten children and now twenty-four grand children. In Aug 2012 we got the announcement of the birth of our first GREAT grand child (a baby girl). I was thrilled to find others of like precious faith and belief in Jesus Christ. Hallelujah! What a Savior! I am presently living in Champion, Alberta, Canada but we are originally from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada. That is where the poem Canadian Tribute to America was birthed. One Sunday as I walked across the city on my way to church I came to the top of a hill and looked across at Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan. After watching the events of the Sept 11 tragedy it was weighing on my heart and mind and the Lord gave me these words. We came to Calgary and when my oldest daughter saw this poem she said, �Dad, what�s this?� and I said a poem and she replied �Dad, that�s not a poem , that�s a song� and she then went to the piano and began to sing and play it. The result of which turned into a song entitled, A Canadian Tribute to America which she recorded on CD. garyjamessmith2005@yahoo.ca
