Stryper has been moved by the disaster Hurricane Katrina caused and would like to encourage everyone to make a donation to the American Red Cross for the relief effort. As victims of Hurricane Katrina are attempting to recover from the massive storm, American Red Cross volunteers have been sent to the hardest hit areas of Katrina’s destruction, supplying hundreds of thousands of victims left homeless with critical necessities. By making a financial donation to support hurricane relief efforts, the Red Cross can provide shelter, food, counseling and other assistance to those affected by Hurricane Katrina. We urge you to help our fellow brothers and sisters in New Orleans and the Gulf Coast area by your much needed prayers and donations.

Reborn Lyrics Available Here

NEWSFLASH: - REBORN instantly becomes a Rare Collectible Stryper item: Ooops.... Someone goofed and hit a wrong button causing a slight mistake in the song order during the CD manufacturing process.

The album artwork states that tracks 7,8, and 9 are:
7 - If I Die
8 - Wait For You
9 - Rain

That is how it was supposed to be on the CD, however, someone hit a wrong button when duplicating the CD and the music that ended up on the CD is actually
7 - Wait for You
8 - Rain
9 - If I Die

The distributor will be remanufacturing the CD with the songs in the correct order. So, if you go to the store this week, you will be buying this rare Reborn CD.

Just like when the US postal service printed the stamp with the airplane upside down, or the US Mint printed a small batch of coins with the back reversed, REBORN too will go down in history as having a very small batch of collectible manufacturing "mistakes."

Get yours NOW, because this will be fixed quickly and you will be one of the few owners of THE most rare CD in Stryper history. This is sure to be one of the most valuable and rare collector's item for Stryper fans worldwide.
