Christianity

Christianity has its advantages
For we shall live when we die
I haven't heard of another offering as such
All others are just pie in the sky
We have a risen Saviour...... Hallelujah
He gave to death quite a sting
It's effect now noneffective
All praises be unto our King

What glorious hope He has offered
All praise be unto His name
Every soul that becomes a believer
Is never the same again
And with a joy that can never be taken
From the song of a sinner set free
And peace, peace, wonderful peace
Sings forgiveness's melody

I'm happy to know I have trusted
In Jesus God's gift as the Son
And His precious blood was sufficient
As an offering to save each one
Praise God Calvary covered it all
Salvation for you and for me
None other name can give such a claim
Than Christianity!

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
