========ABOUT THE SONG==========
I was surfing with a friend the other day and saw the most stunning sunset. As I dropped in on a wave, I shouted, "Check out that God's original!"
At that moment, I spoke of the sunset, but as I continued to ride the wave, I thought about the crowning achievement of the Lord's creation: humanity.
And then I started thinking about my daughter Ziza and my wife Avion. God truly broke the mold when He made them. They are one-of-a-kind. As I paddled back to the line-up, a song started to form.
By the time I reached my friend, I said, "I just wrote a song!" That night, I'd begin tracking it in the studio with Justin, and the rest is history.
For the music video, we went as a family to Kauai, the most beautiful place on earth, to frame God's one-of-a-kind masterpieces. Filming it and exploring God's creation with friends, family, and plenty of picture frames was a blast!
The theme is the first spiritual law; "God loves you and offers a wonderful plan for your life." Given the story at the end, it is clearly a pro-life song inspired by Psalm 139:13-14. The lyrics add to that by saying, "You're not an accident, even if your parents said "Oops!"

God's Original
Written by Mark Mohr
Everybody has a story to tell
And the one the father has for you He’s writing so well - yes
Everybody has a song they could sing,
It’s a sweet Melody that will ring for the king
PRE-CHORUS:
Cause He can’t stop thinking about
Thinking about you
Can’t stop thinking about
Won’t stop, no
Can’t stop thinking about
Thinking about you
Can’t stop thinking about
You are…
CHORUS:
God’s original
Your one of a kind
God’s original
You blow my mind
God’s original
With a story to tell
God’s original
Like no one else
Yeah, well It’s non fictional
I'm tripping out
It is atypical like nothing else
It is so radical and beautiful
That you and God can be personal
Our sin is criminal we’re terminal
But Jah Jah Grace is unconditional
It is a miracle so pivotal
Yo, You are God’s original
(Pre-chorus)
(Chorus)
Yo, you see them want rearrange you
But God broke the mold when He made you
So why would wanna to change you?
So stay true, you gotta stay true now
(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus)
Yo, You must admit that you were knit
By God inside your mother’s womb
Not an accident
But with intent
The Lord created you
So, don't look a gift horse in the mouth"
And be grateful for all of
The gifts you’ve received
It is legit that you were knit
By God inside a ya mother’s womb
Not an accident, even if your parents said “oops!”
Yo, you can become child of God
Along with those who’ve received
Him and those who believe
(Chorus)

![Christafari - New Song (Psalm 40) | Official Music Video [From the Solomon Islands] Christian Reggae
Help bring the Gospel to the world: http://www.christafari.com/donate
Out of all 1,189 chapters in the Bible, Psalm 40 is my life chapter. It tells my story—past, present, and future.
It opens with a testimony:
“I waited patiently for the Lord; He turned to me and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire.”
For me, it wasn’t just mud; it was a cesspool. I was drowning in my own mess, up to my eyes. Yet God reached down and rescued me. He didn’t just pull me out—He cleaned me off, healed my heart, and set my feet on the Rock.
What is that Rock? It’s the unshakable confession that Jesus is Lord—like Peter’s declaration at Caesarea Philippi. It’s prayer, His Word, His church and the Great Commission. And on that Rock, He placed a new song in my mouth—not a cover tune, not a secular anthem, but an original hymn of praise to Him alone. He gave me a story for His glory and a melody to point others to the true Treasure: Christ and His Kingdom.
The goal of this song isn’t charts, awards, or applause. It’s transformation. Psalm 40 promises:
“Many will see and fear the Lord and put their trust in Him.”
That’s the heartbeat of New Song. The very next verse adds:
“Blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord; who does not look to the proud, nor turn aside to false gods.”
This chapter calls us to live unashamed and uncompromising—refusing to bow to idols or empty ideologies, putting Christ first in everything. That’s why the chorus declares:
“I will not be ashamed, neither be afraid.
I will not be quiet, no one can silence...
I will not be timid; no one can limit this love!”
The vast majority of this track is pure Scripture. But verses 9–10 especially grip me: in just two lines, David says five different ways he will proclaim and will not stay silent. That’s my mission too—to boldly share the Gospel, unashamed, so that others can experience the same rescue I have.
My prayer is that this “New Song” stirs your heart to trust Him and inspires you to sing your own testimony of His saving love.

Song Lyrics:
This is Christafari
This is the chapter of my life
King David’s Psalm 40
Living a life without compromise
I’ve got a new song
That I’ve got to show
It is a remedy
For those who never know
This is new song for anyone with ears
I’ll take this new song each and everywhere
Psalm 40:1-3:
I waited patiently for the Lord
He turned to me and He heard my cry
He lifted me out of the pit of despair
Out of the muck and out of the mire
He set my feet on a rock
And gave me a firm place to stand
He put this song in my mouth
A hymn of praise to the Son of Man
Chorus:
I’ve got a new song from the Lord
And this here melody, it is a remedy
I’ve got a new song from the Lord
It is a writing from the Almighty
I will not be ashamed
Neither be afraid
Will not be quiet
No one can silence
(Repeat)
Will not be timid
No one can limit this love... this love...
Psalm 40:3b-4:
Yo, many will see what He has done and be amazed
Yes, theyll put their trust in God’s Son and be saved, yes
Many will hear what He has done and be amazed
Put their trust in God’s Son and be saved
*Way yai yoi, way yai yoi (4x)
So blessed is the man who trusts the Lord
* No He does not look upon the proud
* And He is never turned aside by lies
* This man He never will compromise
(Chorus)
Psalm 40:5-10:
Many my God are all the wonders You have done
The things You’ve planned for us - none can compare
If I could tell of Your deeds there’d be too many to declare
A sacrifice we offer up
You do not desire
But my ears You have opened up
No offerings required
Here I am I have come
It is written of me in the scroll
I desire to do Your will my God
Your law it is written in my heart
So I proclaim Your saving acts before the great assembly
I do not seal my lips up Lord - I won’t go quietly
I do not hide Your righteousness
Or keep it to myself
I tell of Your faithfulness and all of Your saving help! Christafari - New Song (Psalm 40) | Official Music Video [From the Solomon Islands] Christian Reggae](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/8f-GrqELlIQ/mqdefault.jpg)

Last September, when we were touring Japan, we shared the stage with a pastor with a unique Christafari story. He used to be an atheist who didnt want anything to do with God.
Then, a Christian who loved him and knew he loved reggae conspired for his salvation by giving him a Christafari CD. After opening himself up to our music, he was impacted by the message, and the Holy Spirit started doing some serious work in his life. The rest is history.
After Japan, we headed to the Philippines, where we learned of a couple who had a similar story. This is why we do this! We were so impacted by these and countless other stories weve heard in over 90 nations that we decided to use this story as the treatment for our next music video.
Thanks so much for sending us to the ends of the earth as we continue impacting lives for Christ! If this blesses you, kindly consider partnering with us to make more events and content like this possible. Please help reach the lost at any cost and make disciples of all nations: http://www.christafari.com/donate

COME TO THE ALTAR (SONG LYRICS)
I gave You my heart
And gave You my soul
Lord You changed my life
And You Saved forevermore
The best decision that I ever made
Was to say forgive me, Lord Jesus
The best decision that I ever made
Was to say, be my Lord today
You betta answer to Jah
When Him a knock ‘pon your door
If you ignore then you will perish for sure
Answer to Jah
when Him a knock ‘pon your door
Say me tell ya enough times
Yet me tell ya some more
Come to the altar and pray
Come up to the altar and say
Come to the altar oh Yahweh
I’ll do it Your way
do it Your way
I’ll do it Your way
You betta seek (seek) seek out the Lord God Jehovah
And pray and don’t you know you’ll get an answer
Yahweh He is the one that I call Abba
today and don’t you know that he will enter
This is the day
So no more delay
Listen to the knocking
Of the Lord God Yahweh
This is the day
So no more delay
Do you hear what I say?
Come to the altar and pray
come up to the altar, today
Come to the altar
Seek Yahweh
With no more delay, no more delay, no more delay
The best decision that I ever made was to say
“Save me, Lord Jesus!”
The best decision that I ever made was to say,
“Forgive me I pray.”
There is power
In His name
There is healing
In His name
There is forgiveness
In His name
And you’ll never be the same
You’ll never be the same
No you’ll never be the same
I gave you my heart
And gave you my soul
You changed my life
And You’ll love me forevermore
Yo come to the altar
Let Him alter your life
True transformation
THROUGH the Lord Jesus Christ
Come to the altar let him alter your life
No hesitation, and no bother think twice.
PRAY Jesus
Jesus
Lord You died for me
Lord You died for me
Please Forgive me
Please Forgive me
Of all my sin
Of all my sin
NOW Of all my sin
Of all my sin
From all of my iniquities
From all of my iniquities
You rose from the grave
You rose from the grave
SO give me heaven
give me heaven!
(Come to the altar)
(Answer to Jah)
