So Many Songs

So Many Songs

So many songs have been sung
To tell that blessed story
And to me they never grow stale
I'll sing them on through glory
How Christ has died and rose again
And that He lives today
And Salvation through His precious name
Is still available always

The Spirit seems to energize
The heart's of those who sing
And blesses us within our soul
All praises to our King
High and Holy lifted up
Lord Jesus is His name
Yesterday.. Today... Forever
Hallelujah He's the same!

I love that Cross of Jesus
Where beneath I knelt
And when I confessed I was a sinner
So great relief was felt
The Holy Spirit bearing witness
That I had been Redeemed
All my past so swiftly forgiven
And it was not a dream

New life in my Saviour now
There's nothing that can compare
When you come to know the Lord
It generates such prayer
That others may come to know that One
Who sets the captives free
Find your hymn book and sing along
"Faith is the Victory! '

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
