God Has Given Us A Time Span
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

By Gary James Smith
Other Poems by Gary James Smith


God Has Given Us A Time Span

God has given us a time span
Of a twenty four hour day
And has told us to redeem the time
For it too shall soon pass away
What weight of love He carries
With a strong desire to bestow
Upon each repentant believing heart
Only Heaven knows!

Sin enares and blinds us
To the reality of the love of God
And its not until we read His Word
That this is really understood
For faith comes by hearing
And hearing by the Word of God
A great time it is to search the Scriptures
And be enlightened as to the Father's love

If you have seen me you have seen the Father
A statement that the Lord Jesus made
Giving us an inkling of His true Authority
Our Victor over the grave
Who can forgive sins but God they cried out
Well guess who they were crying out too
The Creator and Saviour in the Lord Jesus Christ
The Eternal right there in their view

O the wonder of it all
The glory to us that was revealed
For God to come down in humanness 
To whom one day every soul shall yield
And every tongue shall be confessing His name
As the most precious Word ever heard
And every knee bowing in worshipful adoration
Acknowledging Jesus Christ as the Lord!
And every knee bowing in worshipful adoration
Acknowledging Jesus Christ as the Lord!!!

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
