The Singers

The Kerstetter Family, a family of four who sing together, have been "through the fire;" yet their songs shine forth with a light from within. Their trials have only served to make their Savior more precious as they have called on him through their most difficult experiences, and have found Him faithful. This poem is dedicated to Brad, Neta, Wayde and Skylar.

 

                   THE SINGERS

I have met a lot of singers in my time,
and I've learned a thing or two as they've passed by;
Though they have talents that can garner them acclaim,
The ones who thrill my heart are those who sing
in Jesus' Name.
 

A song without the Spirit is just words;
A tune without His melody, discord;
and all that I desire as I sing my song
is to glorify my Savior all day long!

 

There are those who stand and sing the world's songs,
and reach for stardom as they travel on;
But after tasting all that this old world has to pay,
they will never know contentment
'till they bow the knee and say:
 

A song without the Spirit is just words;
A tune wihout His melody, discord;
and all that I desire as I sing my song
is to glorify my Savior all day long!

 

Refiners' fire brings forth the purest gold,
and God tests every Christian in his soul;
God's melody is burned within the heart that's sorely tried,
and ever will he sing God's song which cannot be denied:

A song without the Spirit is just words;
A tune without His melody, discord;
and all that I desire as I sing my song
is to glorify my Savior all day long!

I believe when we go thru the refiners fire two things can happen. 1. We can turn inward--wallowing in pitty, and then outward, blaming anyone else for what happened. Result: denial, hidden guilt, and bitterness.
2. We can turn to God, yoke with him, and rest easy. Result: heart growth, comfort, and inner peace.

A wonderful tribute to the Kerstetters and God. Through Him all things are possible. Yes, sing to the Lord a new song.

FANTASTIC Connie. You've written a tribute to our Lord as well as well as the Kerstetter family. Well done. Where are they from? Love to book them for the Rumney Bible Conference next summer for the Concert Series.

Connie,

Thank you for bringing this family to our attention; of course I'll check their music out! Love Christian music, especially when it's anointed. Karen Wheaton is one of my favorites--the power she sings with! Well done.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.
