The Master of Peace

THE MASTER OF PEACE 
 
The Master of peace our masterpiece 
Who says to the sea...be still
Who gives forgiveness for our sins 
And gives forgiveness still
Who did not hold back heaven's love
But came Himself to save 
His authority none can usurp 
For He rose up from the grave
 
His love spread throughout the world
He gave as His commission 
And sends the labourers to their fields
To work under submission 
To that very Lord of Lord's 
The God of earth and heaven
Who's Word is preached everywhere 
The "bread of life" unleavened 
 
Help us Lord to recognize
The lost within our midst
And not miss out on ministering
The "truth " that brings men bliss
For sin brings blight, disease and ruin
Robs all men of peace
May they seek to know the Lord
And find the "Masterpiece ".

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
