The Blessed Holy One

THE BLESSED HOLY ONE
 
Eternal life a present possession
Of all those who believe
Morning joy our sure inheritance
Until this earth we leave.
Then Christ our joy, we shall behold Him
When we meet Him face to face
Surrounded by the love of God
Who saved us by His grace.
 
Glory hallelujahs sing
The choir assembled in heaven
Salutations to the King of Kings
Who is the bread unleavened
Not one sin can enter in
God has deemed it so
Removed as far as the east from the west
Who washes white as snow.
 
Righteousness new robes we wear
Fitteded by our Tailor
Who poured out love by His shed blood
Forgiveness for the nailer
Pierced hands and feet thorn crowned brow
Marks left in His side
Redemptions proof full evidence
Nothing has He to hide.
 
Our risen Lord now glorified
Seated there on High
Stands welcoming saved sinners home
To whom we draweth nigh
And bowing there before His feet
Confessing with our tongue
You O Lord, alone art worthy
Thou Blessed Holy One.

About the Poet
I came to know the Lord as my personal Saviour in January of 1972. I was married on Oct 21,1966 to my wife Linda who also loves the Lord. We have ten children and now twenty-four grand children. In Aug 2012 we got the announcement of the birth of our first GREAT grand child (a baby girl). I was thrilled to find others of like precious faith and belief in Jesus Christ. Hallelujah! What a Savior! I am presently living in Champion, Alberta, Canada but we are originally from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada. That is where the poem Canadian Tribute to America was birthed. One Sunday as I walked across the city on my way to church I came to the top of a hill and looked across at Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan. After watching the events of the Sept 11 tragedy it was weighing on my heart and mind and the Lord gave me these words. We came to Calgary and when my oldest daughter saw this poem she said, �Dad, what�s this?� and I said a poem and she replied �Dad, that�s not a poem , that�s a song� and she then went to the piano and began to sing and play it. The result of which turned into a song entitled, A Canadian Tribute to America which she recorded on CD. garyjamessmith2005@yahoo.ca
