May The Words

May The Words

May the words of my mouth
And the meditation of my heart
Be acceptable in Thy sight
That I might live to honor You
Lord by day or night
And let not any circumstance
Bring it to disarray
But by Thy Spirit dear Lord I ask
Give victory every day

For in Jesus Christ I live I stand
He is my Rock of Ages
I will not falter in the way
No matter what the test is
But rush to You Lord in prayer
For Your undertaking
And wait by faith with abiding grace
That leads to jubilation

For great and greatly are You Lord
Worthy to be praised
For putting sin in its place
In that You Lord are raised
And my penalty for such
You paid the sacrifice
Your precious blood O Lamb of God
Did sufficiently suffice

So rise up spirit take up joy
The victory has been won
Three great Victor's on our side
The Father... The Spirit... The Son
And Heaven but a breath away
For we have been Redeemed
And Salvation our gift from God
May He be mightily Esteemed!

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
