He Wrote About Me

He Wrote About Me

He wrote about me I write about Him
Praise God for sin's Emancipator
The One who took God's wrath  for my sin
Is both my Saviour and my Creator
He paid it all...He paid all
No cost was left for me
Though my wages for sin was death
"Paid in full" was stamped there clearly

Christ's blood sufficient as the sacrifice
For innocence was His lot
Born of a virgin in Bethlehem
For that I praise Him a lot
He didn't have to die that way
But it was my sin that took Him there
Our burden bearing Lord Jesus Christ
Who choose a Cross to bare

Hallelujah's still fill those heart's 
Who have such a Redeemer
For hope overflows with thankfulness
Who now know sins Forgiver
The presence of God's Holy Spirit
As my daily reference
O for the joy to give up sinning
And to enjoy the fruit of repentance

Tell me that story again of Jesus
For I love to hear His name
Every soul who has ever trusted Him
Are never the same again
My chief delight is to do His will
And to do it most willingly
For the love of God has captured my heart
I write it as a testimony
The love of God has captured my heart
I write it as a testimony...

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
