We Can Bask

We Can Bask

We can bask in God's glory
Every single day
Not a cloud of doubt can rob us
To praise Him in this way
All creation needs His favor
To function as they live
What is it that holds you back
From praises to Him give

God Almighty bless Thy people
Who give back praise to You
And recognize your hand of mercy
And grace received from You
And know the love that You have rendered
In the Person of Your Son
For the precious Lamb of Calvary
Securing our Redemption

Salvation's song continues singing
In the hearts of men redeemed
Nothing can stop these notes from ringing
Born again's our everything!
We know in Whom we have believed
The Cross... The grave... He's alive!
The hope we have lives eternal
In the heart's for Whom He died

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
