The Truth
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

THE TRUTH

The truth still reigns triumphant in this world today
For the basis of it's foundation
Is He who is the Way
Whatever Jesus spoke about was entirely absolute
Because of this very fact
He's the Way, He's the Life, He's the Truth

Not one word He ever spoke
Was based upon a lie
For He had presence with the Father in eternity
And as He was sent into this world to die for all our sin
The "truth is" you'll receive eternal life if you believe on Him

Satan is the " father of lies" who goes about deceiving
As a roaring lion to keep people unbelieving
And his deception power though it seems to work quite well
Will result in the adherence of such to that awful place called "Hell"

But faithful and true is our God
Who cannot help but love
So much so He sent His Son to leave yon heaven above
To come to earth in the form of a man
Yet through virgin birth was born
This is the very truth of the matter
As in God's word we've learned

That truth still stands...It lives! He lives
In Resurrection power
And shall never diminish it's effectiveness
This is His Word of honor
Though heaven and earth may pass away
His word abides forever
So with this truth as our bases for faith
Let's share this Word together

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
