Resurrection

Resurrection

Resurrection rules... Amen?
Ransomed, redeemed set free
Because He lives I shall ever
Live for eternity
A lightened step to guide me now
For I'm walking in the light
One day these eyes never again to see
No darkness nor no night

If that doesn't give you some hallelujah's
Praise the Lord and a lot of amens
You're definitely not enjoying your Salvation
You may not even be born again
So check your spiritual temperature
What is the reading for God
If it's zilch then turn up the heat
Begin to read the Word

Things will change.. the temperature rise
Your heart will be drawn in
And magnetized to your soul
The consequences of sin
Now look, look, look and live
There's life in the Crucified One
Don't stay trapped in trespasses and sin
Believe in the Resurrection!

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
