I Have Great Faith

I Have Great Faith

I have great faith in my faith
Because it trusts in God
The only wise Creator
The Author of the Word
The Originator of faith
The Just and Holy One
Who gave of His utmost treasure
In the giving of His Son

I have great faith in my faith
God's Spirit lives in me
And leads me in paths of Righteousness
Because of Calvary
Daily His will I'm seeking
And I find that will through prayer
I have a Friend called Jesus
Who's with me everywhere

I have great faith in my faith
For it's founded on the Word
And in Its pages resonates
Of the salvation I am assured
And so I'm living... longing
For His coming back again
I have great faith in my faith
In Lord Jesus name...Amen!

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
