Amen For The Clarity

Amen For The Clarity

Amen for the clarity forgiveness gives
That gives in the light of the Cross
When we see our sin as an assault against God
And the price that was paid..."what cost!"
Jesus Christ Himself Crucified 
He died the Just for the unjust
Offering the Purest righteousness of God
If in Him we place out trust

What cleansing power in His precious blood
It cleanses through and through
And an absolute assurance gives
That we've been born anew
I love that Jesus died for me
I've utilized faith's application
I know for sure I've savingly believed
In the Author of so great Salvation

How refreshing is this Life
That He gives us abundantly
How sweet to know this blessed Saviour
Who gave His life for me
Grace and mercy twinning partners
On my redemption Day
When I put my trust in Jesus Christ
Sin had to flee away

Now a Conqueror reigns within
To help me overcome
And sin shall not have power over me
Because I know the Son
You might ask "can that really be?!!"
I tell you most resolutely
That you can have victory over sin
Over sin you say?!!...Absolutely!!!

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
