Our Hope And Hallelujah

Our Hope and Hallelujah
Is Jesus Christ the Lord
Who always keeps His promises
In honor of the Word
And present still He is
By way of the Holy Spirit
Seeking still for lost one's
Brother. sister...hear it!

His great gift of Salvation
For sinners reconciled
The purpose He held steadfast too
From the time He was a Child
He sought out individuals
With whom to own His cause
And began His ministry of love
In that effort was no pause

Right up until His death
His forgiveness held Him fast
Even one of the dying thieves
Believed on Him at last
No greater love was ever displayed
Than in the person of the Son
Our Hope and Hallelujah
Immanuel has come!

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
