There Is

Where Is

Where is this soul of mine
Leading me today
Is it on the downward path
Or on the upward way
Choices undeniable
Greet us every morn
How are we engaging them
Is there an inner storm

Father God awaits our will
Will His will be done
Only can we be obedient
In the power of Christ...His Son
Choices...choices...choices...choices
Where are yours leading you
I trust you give them to the Father
And seek His will to do

Our beginning determines the outcome
How is your's doing my friend
If your life is filled with yourself
You'll have a bitter end
But if your prayer begins as such
"Lord...what would You have me do?"
Then heaven has it's residence
In the heart of you

I trust you come to know the joy
Of hallelujah living
An inner...outer praise to God
A heart filled with thanksgiving
That Christ surrendered all for me
His blood as sacrifice
May I surrender all to Him
Who paid sin's ransom price!

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
