Who Would Believe This

Who Would Believe

Who would believe a Saviour would come
In such an unlikely fashion
To fasten our heart's to His love
To serve Him with unwavering passion
Who else could we go to
To deal with the results of our sin
None other has the resources at hand
Praise God there's none other like Him!

And to do so so willingly
To go to an old rugged Cross
To carry our sin and the burden of it
To offer eternal life back unto us
Swiftly my heart now praise Him
What a wonderful Saviour is He
To love me and to forgive me
In spite of my sin history

O I acknowledge my need of Him
I acknowledge it everyday
And thank Him for His loving companionship
As we walk along the way
Bless the Lord O my soul
And for all of His benefits
Unwise it the ending of a life that says
" I will have none of it!"

Heaven is awaiting your prayer
The Angles are ready to rejoice
God is eager to send you His Spirit
Upon hearing your repentant heart's voice
God be merciful to me a sinner
My sins I know have been no secret to You
I now repent with all of my heart
I'm ready to live my life anew!
I now repent with all of my heart
I'm ready to live my life anew!

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
