God Is The Definer
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

God Is The Definer

God is the definer of just what sin is
The law as the standard thereof
He wrote on our heart's and on our mind's
The law is the derivative of love
For God made the law a schoolmaster
To bring us unto the Lord
That's how important the Bible is
It's the law according to God's Word

The law is like the links of a chain
They're strong when it is attached
But remove one link and you know the results
Their strength is diminished quite fast
And so it is with us my friend
By the law we're not justified
For all have sinned and fallen short of God's glory
That truth cannot be denied

Jesus Christ came to fulfill the law
And fulfill the law He sure did
For not one sin was found in Him
And He's become our living Head
The prophetic Word of Him was satisfied
As prophet, as priest, and as King
By fulfilling the demands of the law as such
He became our everything!

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
