Uncompromising Faith in God

UNCOMPROMISING FAITH IN GOD

Uncompromising faith in God
Who is the sinner's Friend
Sealed by that Spirit of promise
World without end...amen!

Miraculous those deeds on earth
That our Lord performed
Attesting to His preexistence
Before this world was formed

Almighty God lived through the Son
And brought forth saving grace
Unmatched love by any other
Men saw Him face to face

And witnessed therein providentially
Divinity from above
God in Christ revealed to men
The fulness of His love

Where death was required for sacrifice
To pay the price of sin
That shed blood of the holy One
Sufficied to let us in

And on the cross of Calvary
As fresh as it was back then
Is still that saving power of faith
To each believing man

Where relief for sin and waywardness
Is God's forgiveness cup
Come ye to Him and be saved today
Come and dine and sup!

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
