O what Glorious Exhiliration
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

By Gary James Smith

O What Glorious Exhilaration 

O what glorious exhilaration
God's come down as man
To live the life...to die the death
That we might live again
Raised praise God by His Resurrection
His sure triumph over the grave
Now we have a blessed hope
And now we can be saved

O what glorious exhilaration 
Saved and cleansed from sin
What great relief the joy of forgiveness
Since Christ now lives within
Nighttime holds no bond upon me
As I lay me down to sleep
For the Good Shepherd watches over me
And He my soul doth keep

If you overhear me saying Hallelujah 
You'll know my cause of that
For I know I'm on my way to Heaven
And that's a proven fact
For He the Word...my Lord Jesus
Said whomsoever will may come
Praise God I repented of my sin
And I'll meet Him at His Throne

O what glorious exhilaration 
You may have it too
Just think that God became your Saviour
His love so great for you
He will not leave us in our sin
To die a devil's death
But no! Praise God! Hallelujah! Glory!
Repent and receive Spiritual breath!

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
