Salvation Is Of
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

Salvation Is Of

Salvation is of the Spirit of Christ
When we are born from above
What peace and joy in the Lord is ours
When we put our faith in His Word
For the Word Himself He is
Our God in human flesh
When we are born again by His Spirit
We know it's His will to bless

And offer us an abundant life
Beyond our wildest imagination
Placing us in the Kingdom of God
On the acceptance of His Salvation
Yes O what deep deep love of Jesus
Unfathomless in it's degree
None comparable in His universe
The love He has for you and me

Grasp the fact of His deliverance
Our sin cancelled by His death
He took our punishment upon Him
To offer us Eternal Breath
Now the life that we are living
When we repented of our sin
Has Heaven's stamp of approval upon it
Because praise God we've trusted in Him!

Hallelujah what a Saviour!

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
