Spirit Of Expectancy

Spirit Of Expectancy

Amen for the Spirit of expectancy
That is waiting upon the Lord
To bring a change to lives of loved ones
Who honestly read the Word
Who when they find out that truth exists
In the person of the Son
They ask the God of Heaven themselves
About being born again

And investigate the fact thereof
That faith is what pleases God
Who honors a heart that is truly seeking
To find out about the Lord
Who holds Christ's name above all others
Such the value of His worth
The only name under Heaven that's given
To offer unto men new birth

Lord give our heart's that expectancy
To have a zeal for God
To remain steadfast and  fervent in prayer
And dependent upon your Word
We know for souls was the reason Christ died
Hallelujah for the Cross
That He was not willing that any should perish
And suffer eternal loss

There shall be showers of blessings amen!
Hallelujah....Hallelujah...amen!
Lives shall be changed in coming days
Souls will be born again
God's name magnified and glorified
The baptism of fire to begin
The ashes of repentant sin blown away
By God's mighty rushing wind!

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
