Love Native-American Patriotism: First Chronicles 29

I sang of Caleb at Harvard University, 1660
I sang of Africans come to America unknowingly
I sang of women and children who came to Jesus
Singing Old Spirituals, Crossing the Red Sea

Native-Americans may have lost everything, but one -
Their love for land. Highest ratio in our wars. True patriotism!
Like King David, who wasn't allowed to build God's Temple
Yet the biggest donor, because God Great Giver's, never outdone

I sing of Cheeshahteamuck, First in Theology in 1660
Died of TB, malnutrition, dank & cold dormitory
Like them, I know the HEART OF JESUS, the Victory
He won through suffering. The Cross: "The Way" of Unity

I sing of Africa, my adopted mother, womb of more slavery
Still, all this world is slave to sin, pleasure, false security ...
Whatever GOD allows, is BEST and the best place to be
SURRENDER to NOW: like Jesus, tasting & sharing ETERNITY
