I Draw from the Blood

I DRAW FROM THE BLOOD


 


I draw from the blood that cleansing power


That washes all...of my sin away


I now forgive as I was firgiven


Through Jesus Christ...the Life, the Truth, the Way


He placed me in...the loving arms of Father


Now to know ...what peace of His as mine


To live anew...a life as a saved sinner


I thank you Lord..for such a love divine!


 


O Calvary's cross..you made my life worth living


I see, I see, the world as You do Lord


Every soul...they need to know the Saviour


Trust in Him..Who is the living Word


To magnify..that precious name of Jesus


My passion now..to live for Him is gain


To see the cross, in all it's splendor...glory!


So glad I trusted..in Lord Jesus name!


 


A dying world is living with such lostness


Blinded eyes because they cannot see


Satan deceiving gathering for his kingdom


Wounded hearts who know not Calvary


Take that Word..and share the gospel story


Jesus saves! And Jesus satisfies!


Give the world the opportunity brother


It was for them..our Lord was crucified!

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
