Throwback to 1983 when I was on the road with Debby Boone and she would allow me to feature a few songs of my own. One of the ones I often sang was 'A Jew Born Anew' - a testimony song I'd written to tell my own story as a Jew who came to know Yeshua, Jesus, as his Messiah!
This song is one of many featured on our new ‘Singin’ in the Reign (Scrapbook)’ album - available everywhere OCTOBER 15, 2021 itunes.apple.co....
The ‘Coronavirus Pandemic’ of 2020…
afforded us something we would not have otherwise had: LOTS of time at home. With the help of our daughter, Misha, we were able to go through boxes of video tapes, cassettes and ‘reel to reel’ recordings that had been sitting in our storage room for decades. The result is an album of songs entitled 'Singin' in the Reign (Scrapbook)'; some songs never released, others in their original piano/vocal form, along with selections from our very first cassette recording, ‘More Than The Watchman’.

A Jew Born Anew

I had a Bar Mitzvah when I was thirteen
Greatest Bar Mitzvah that you’ve ever seen.
The temple on the corner of Mayfield and Lee
Was filled with my friends and my family
All of them as proud can be,
With catering far as the eye could see,
Complete with a chopped liver statue of me.
Now they ask me how I can go so wrong
And why all of a sudden I’m singing this song,
They say “Son you’re deserting your fathers of old,
So why don’t you just come back to the fold,
You’re such a nice boy or weren’t you told
That when you were born they broke the mold
So whaddya need with this stuff ya been sold?”
But it’s a far, far better thing that I do,
Than I have ever done, when I believed what they said was true
That Yeshua is God’s only son
Well I’ve done many things and I don’t do a few
But this one thing I do makes Me a Jew Born Anew,
Yes, through and through I’m a Jew Born Anew
So Hallelujah to Yeshua from a Jew who never knew ya,
Could come to die for a schmo like I was,
Just so I could win the prize
and be with my Messiah in the skies!
They say on Bar Mitzvah day I became a man,
I’ve tried to live that way, done the best that I can,
But I’ve been worried since way back when
‘Cause I’ve never done anything great since then,
And though I could live ‘til a hundred and ten
And never have need of a fountain pen,
I might never succeed in the sight of men,
And they won’t let me get Bar Mitzvahed again!
But it’s a far, far better thing that I do,
Than I have ever done, when I believed what they said was true
That Yeshua is God’s only son
Well I’ve done many things and I don’t do a few
But this one thing I do makes Me a Jew Born Anew,
Yes, through and through I’m a Jew Born Anew
So Hallelujah to Yeshua from a Jew who never knew ya’,
Could come to die for a real schlemiel
When I couldn’t tell you were the long awaited Holy One of Israel!
So all of you who don’t know Yeshua, let me introduce Him to ya’.
He’s the blessed Messiah, the Lion of Judah
Who wants to do to ya what He did to me!
He came to live in a schlep like I was
Yep, it’s true on Christmas morn,
The truest Jew that ever was, was born!
Lai, lai, lai, lai, lai,.............
..........that’s no lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie,
a Jew Born Anew Am I!!!!!!!!!!
