God Is On The March

God Is On The March

God is on the march
Although He is unseen
His will be done on earth
As it is in Heaven
As mortal men we fail
To see His Providence
However we try to visualize
Our efforts are to no avail

But active yes He is
He will not sleep nor slumber
Continually seeking souls
To come to know the Son
The sacrifice of Calvary
The mantelpiece of history
Provision for Salvation
Offered to each repentant one

Yes God is on the march
His vision always steadfast
Not willing that any should perish
But that all should be saved
His love that knows no measure
Withstands whatever assails it
He knows that wonderful life exists
For believers beyond the grave!

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
