I wrote this song way back when I first became a Christian (1973). A version of this tune has been played in every Christian group project I have been in. In Harvest we made a 45 RPM vinyl out of it. In Christian Raw Dog we made a recording of it.
I like the music of the late 60's and early 70's. To me they were times of creativity when it came to guitar playing and arrangements with different instruments
Classic Rock meets Praise and Worship/ Pop/ Progressive/ Retro - Recorded at Roman Recordings (that little home studio) these songs are creative and different. If you enjoy creative rock and classic rock, these songs are for you. If you love the word of God, these songs are also for you. May the Lord bless you as you listen.
Story behind the song
Notes:
I wrote this song way back when I first became a Christian by Gods grace (1973).
A version of this tune has been played in every Christian band project I have been in. In Harvest we made a 45 RPM vinyl out of it. In Christian Raw Dog we made a recording of it. This latest version is Rick Roman and The Synthetic Music Machine.
In light of the world going crazy with so many lies of deception coming forth I felt impressed to do another version. Vision of where we are going is very important in these days of multiplied deceptions. Millions, Billions and Trillions will be spent on things that don't even matter. Global warming, is one of the biggest lies from the unbelieving to take our minds off the truth of Gods judgments upon our nation and the world. These are things the faithless do not understand. God is in control of the weather and in His word (the bible) He tells us of His judgments.
Where are we going? In the end it is a new heavens and a new earth. The apostle John expressed it very well in Revelation 21; Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth passed away, and there is no longer any sea. 2 And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne, saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is among the people, and He will dwell among them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself will be among them, 4 and He will wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there will no longer be any death; there will no longer be any mourning, or crying, or pain; the first things have passed away.
Lyrics
THE NEW JERUSALEM
Rick Roman and The Synthetic Music Machine version
There are kingdoms
many kingdoms from which to choose,
But just one Kingdom,
Jesus Kingdom Is the one to choose !
My Jesus !
My only Jesus !
He's the way; He's the truth; He's the Life. (John 14:6)
He can take you , He can place you in His kingdom
Yes He Can oh ya Yes He Can
There will be no more death Rev. 21:4
or mourning or crying or pain
for the old order of things has passed away
And He Who sits on the throne said: Rev. 21:5
Behold I am making all things new Oh ya
And I saw, a new heaven and earth, (Rev. 21 :1)
for the first one passed a-way
And there were no, no more tears (Rev- 21:4)
just perfect harmony
Then the City, (Rev- 21:4)
that Holy City
Descended from the heavens above (Rev. 21:10)
And He carried me away In the Spirit ,
Yes, He did ! Oh Ya Yes He Did
There will be no more death Rev. 21:4
or mourning or crying or pain
for the old order of things has passed away
And He Who sits on the throne said: Rev. 21:5
Behold I am making all things new Oh ya
And I saw, pure rivers of water (Rev. 22:1)
Life, clear as crystal,
Proceeding out of the throne of God,
rivers of Living Water.
Now the tree, (Rev. 22:2-3)
that Tree of Life,
The fruit of it, healed the nations
and there shall be no more, no more curse.
No, there won't , No more curse , No, there won't
Come On
Jesus is the true Son of God
praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
praise the Lamb, praise the Lamb
Alleluia , Alleluia , Alellula , Allelula , Etc.
I Believe
