God Cannot But Be

God Cannot But Be

God cannot but be and always is
The God of here I Am
For everywhere present is our God
The wonderful Creator of man
There's no escaping from His sight
For for darkness to Him is as light
Where on His earth can you hide from Him
May you give that some thought tonight

Our sin is exposed to Him always.
To the depths of it's degree
With deceitful hearts and wickedness
We need Him so desperately
How long will the idols of self enthroned
Keep you from believing His Word
And that which separates you from God
Will finally be a reality heard

The pleasures of sin are but for a season
Is your season looking for change
You're tired of living life on the edge
You know things should be rearranged
Well here I Am is still that God
Who would love to make you anew
Just call upon the Lord today
With the breath He has given you!

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
