I read with sadness E Izett's letter regarding changing our national anthem.
I know you are not the only one that would like to see it replaced and this leads me to believe you do not know this God you so despise is actually knowable.
I know because I know Him and have experienced the power that raised Jesus Christ from the dead.
Anyone who has not experienced an encounter with the Creator of the Universe has missed the greatest experience in life.
If atheism can offer me a better life than one of fulfilment satisfaction peace and contentment with the God I know, and the God of the anthem, then I will have a good look at what you have to offer.
Let our anthem be forever - it actually is the best one in the world.

NZ National Anthem

Thank you S Smith for your comments in reply to E Izett re our World No1 National Anthem. My sentiments exactly. Small changes from 'Thee' and 'Thou' to 'You' and 'Your' could be made, but it is a prayer that we sing collectively to the living God and may I suggest to those who don't believe in Him, the reason why our small country prospers, is because He 'honours those who honour Him'. Look what is happening to the US since they have turned away from the basis on which their country was founded. W Edwards, Welcome Bay
