Wow Lord!

Wow Lord!

Wow Lord! What a wonderful Saviour You are
You take us in our lost condition and show us our despair
For how empty are we Lord when we're devoid of You
Absolutely astonishing just what saving faith can do

Here we are on our own seeking to find the way
Trying this and that new thing to make it through each day
Seeking to find justfication for why we do this or that
Leaving off of our need of You...and isn't that the fact

But praise You Lord You don't give up You continually set the stage
To interrupt the way we think and to lead us Lord to praise
For when we find by Providence that You've come to save the lost
And accept Your so great Salvation provided through Calvary's Cross

It leads us to a ...Wow Lord! For such a consideration
That You've made such a loving effort to bring us the Revelation
That Jesus died for all of mankind and that He died for me
And all can utter is...Wow Lord! And shout it most joyously!

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
