God Has Patience

GOD HAS PATIENCE


 


God has patience unknown to man


His toleration for our sin


His longsuffering one day will end


Then "Judgment Day" begins


We are at our Father's mercy


In our lives each day


Better to have known the Saviour


Then turn from Him away


 


Take an inventory brother


Are you heaven bound


Have you a love for Father God


Or in you none is found


Do consider that "tempter" satan


You cannot him dismiss


He will rob you of true inheritance


And steal from you all bliss


 


Life "there is" and It's abundant


In our Risen Lord


Resurrection gives assurance


Praise God for His Word


For that's Who He is and Who He's with


And Who in the beginning was


He's the God of "all" patience


Own His worthy cause!

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
