But...

Here on Life with Lynnie (LwL), I doubt if you will be surprised when I let you know that today is a special day.  It's our Lord's Day!

Yes, we need to worship.  I do.  Hopefully, you do.

Of course, as I've said in the past, I also enjoy worshiping through music!

A Facebook (FB) friend shared a YouTube music video with me, that I thought was rather unique.  Although it has music that I'm sure everyone will recognize, the lyrics are different.

Here is a link for the music video that is entitled, Jesus Saves (to tune - Jingle Bells with lyrics)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NAx079UDgGs.  If you click on it, you will be able to see the lyrics and enjoy the music and/or sing along.  The lyrics are below.

Jesus Saves

The world belongs to God
He spoke and there it was
Though it was very good
It all went bad because
The man that God had made
And the woman there with him
Turned their back on God to get 
A deadly taste of sin.

But...
Jesus saves!
Jesus saves!
Jesus is the way
Jesus is the Saviour
You can come to Him today, HEY!

Jesus saves!
Jesus saves!
People from their sin
You will find forgiveness
When you put your trust in Him

Well if you look around
You'll see how sin has spread
Turning light to dark
And living things to dead
But God still rules the world
He always had a plan
To send His Son to save us in
A likeness of a man

But...
Jesus saves!
Jesus saves!
Jesus is the way
Jesus is the Saviour
You can come to Him today, HEY!

Jesus saves!
Jesus saves!
People from their sin
You will find forgiveness
When you put your trust in Him

Well if you come to God
You still have time you know
He'll wash your sinful heart
And make it white as snow
Come taste eternal life
And death will have no sting
All who trust in Jesus
Are the children of the King

Jesus saves!
Jesus saves!
Jesus is the way
Jesus is the Saviour
You can come to Him today, HEY!
 
Jesus saves!
Jesus saves!
People from their sin
You will find forgiveness
When you put your trust in Him

You will find forgiveness
When you put your trust in Him

Amen!

To me, this Christmas music was really truthful.  And, it made me think of several Bible verses.

Even so, I thought mostly about:

*  Romans 10:9, "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved."

and...

*  1 John 1:9, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."

Amen!  Just as today's Bible verses and the music lyrics say... if we believe in Him, we shall be saved, and if we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness... so our sinful heart can become white as snow.

For this, I am truly thankful!

Thank You, Lord!


Until next time...
