He Can Still

He Can Still

He can still any storm
There's none too fierce for Him
And praise God even the hidden storms
The storms that live within
We may carry smiles around
That others can easily see
But oftimes there's a sadness found
That lives inside of thee

When your soul is anchored to 
That Rock of Ages sure
Though storms of life may hit you hard
You'll rest in Him secure
For God always keeps His promises
And praise God He always will
His Words can calm the fiercest storm
When He says "Peace. .be still"

I've known His very presence 
In my own storms of life
When days were filled with chaos
And nights oftimes with strife
I've cast my anchor overboard
Into God's most restful sea
He takes hold with fastening power
Wrapping His arms of love around me

He can still any storm
There's none too fierce for Him
And praise God even the hidden storms
The storms that live within
We may carry smiles around
That others can easily see
But oftimes there's a sadness found
That lives inside of thee

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
