There is another side of life few people ever see; Ye must be born-again, or this life can never be. A repented soul is lead by the Holy Spirit, God’s Author and Guide, To a beautiful world of grace and mercy, rich and wide. The Holy Spirit abides there, present every day; Grace and mercy abound there, free in every way. Neither man’s money, nor his fame can secure it, nor receive; It is God’s free gift, to those who choose to believe. First, the Holy Spirit must do its work, alone; He convicts the sinful soul, then seeks it for His own. The sinner, at first, feels the pangs of death’s sting; Then, as he relents, he feels his heart joyfully sing. God’s mighty miracle is made complete When we say yes to the Holy Spirit, in defeat. When our rebellious and sinful heart surrenders in kind, God sends forth His dinner invitation: come and dine.
