Born Again

At first it starts with a tiny seed
 then the roots spring up out of the fertile soil
 preaching, teaching & service
 To humbly obey is better then sacrifice

 faces, spaces & traces
 It unfold with an open heart
 saturated with the truth of God's word
 One must die to self

 Pick up your cross on a daily basis
 In time you will walk as a child
 faith isn't intellectualized it just it
 God's love for you is the great eternal constant

 Accept Jesus into your heart as your personal savior & Lord
 hope springs a new
 Continue to confess your sins & believe
 Unless one is born again he can not see the kingdom 

 Join a bible based church that preaches the word
 pray & give tithes 
 Share your faith with those who are lost
 create in me a clean heart and renew a right spirit within me

 Only one life will soon be passed
 only what's done for Jesus will last
 With what time we use today will be echoed throughout eternity
 God alone is enough
