It Is Christ

It Is Chrisr...  10:23 AM

It is Christ and Christ alone
That satisfies my sins demand
For death my sentence, I was undone
On my own I could not stand
All my filthy righteous rags
Were but a mock to Christ the Son
He alone could clothe me rightly 
In the garments of His Salvation
He alone could clothe me rightly
In the garments of His Salvation

It is Christ and Christ alone
That did the work on my behalf
He took my place at Calvary
And took in full the Father's wrath
All I deserved was now forgiven
A clean slate to start anew
What He did was to His glory
And He can do the same for you
What He did was to His glory
And He can do the same for you

It is Christ and Christ alone
The Good Shepherd leads us on
With a hope that is eternal
He is our...Hallelujah song
I cannot breathe but seek to praise Him
My eyes of faith are now transfixed
On the One who sealed my pardon
My sin problem has now been fixed
On the One who sealed my pardon
My sin problem has now been fixed

It is Christ and Christ alone
No other name has such power
His love superceeds above any other
He's available at any hour
It is Christ and Christ alone
How I praise God for that name
If any soul calls upon Him
He will never be the same
If any soul calls upon Him
He will never be the same!!!!

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
