DEAR GOD BE PLEASED

Dear Gid be pleased to bless again
Thy people through the Word
Make us inspired to do Thy will
And live unto the Lord

May it grip our hearts afresh
The lost...they must be saved!
And energize us by Your Spirit
To preach about the grave

Where Lord Jesus rose again
In Resurrection power
And lives...praise God He liveth still
His truth our stalwart tower

And sin's corruption
shall be dealt
It's final blow by God
When Satan's expelled to the lake of fire
With His chastening Rod

Let hallelujah' announce Your Presence
We shall live forever
And give us fervent passion for
The souls of unbelievers

And may our hearts with daily prayer
Emit with glorious praise
For Your blessings from above
Almighty Ancient of Days

Your Word the mighty sword we yield
With double edgedness
Bring conviction by Your Spirit
To birth forth Righteousness

The truth be known...You are the Truth
The Life and as well the Way
Begin again desire in our heart's
And let it start today!

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
