Salvation
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

By Gary James Smith
Other Poems by Gary James Smith


Salvation

Salvation in all of it's glory
Is revealed in Jesus Christ
God the Father accepting His death
For payment...sin's ransom price
There the sinless Saviour
Hung between two thieves
But He arose three days hence
And still!....yes still He lives

The gospel message still the same
It never...never changes
Whomsoever believes on Christ
That life...God rearranges
And puts His seal of approval upon
The life that trusted Christ
You will find it true my friend
When you are born here twice

Your first birth an earthly matter
You are born in sin
Adam's nature as your own
You must be born again
Your second birth the significant one
One born of the Spirit
You must be born from above
Listen friend...now hear it

Lord Jesus lived in servant hood
Putting others first
May you find new life in Him
And have a spiritual thirst
For He is Bread and Water
Our Lord the living Word
Come now be ye "born again"
I trust that you have heard!

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
