• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

To sing a new song, a song in my heart,
A song that’s of joy, to never depart,
To sing it out loud where people can hear,
To sing now with courage and never with fear,

To sing in the morning and even at night,
To sing of salvation, of Jesus, the Light,
To tell of His wonders, His miracles, too,
To tell of His grace and His mercy for you,

To tell how He died that horrible death,
To tell how He breathed then His very last breath,
To tell then of how He rose from the grave,
In order that our souls He would now save,

To tell of our need to die now to sin,
So we can live with Him forever in heaven,
To tell we must walk in His righteousness,
To tell how obedience gives us sweet rest,

To tell this with joy, with love in my heart,
That you would believe in Him, never depart,
That you would submit to Him, Jesus your Lord,
That you would now walk with Him, in one accord,

Brings joy to my heart, such peace satisfies,
Assurance of faith, and never in lies,
To know that you, too, are walking with Him,
And that you’re no longer walking in sin.

Amen to this. I like your poem, and this is why I sometimes sing Christian songs (such as Chris Tomlin, other Christian artists, and Catholic hymns), in order to worship God and honor His Son who died and rose again for us.
