Jesus Is Our Joy Forever

Jesus Is A Joy Forever 

Jesus is a joy forever
His presence is the guarantee of grace
Anointed by God to be our Saviour
Come now and seek His face
Born in a lowly manger
But risen as our living Head
Sin's Conqueror and Deliverer 
Appearing before God in our stead

A deep and lasting peace
Stems from His so great Salvation
Guilt for our sins removed and gone
Now a joyous heart of adulation
We give You praise O Father
For the gifting of Your Son
You've crowned Him as the King of Glory
God Almighty...most Holy One!

Come bear Him in your heart
Be born again this Christmas day
Rejoice as only a believer can
When our sins are washed away
O come let us adore Him
Who came down from Heaven to live here
As God in Christ reconciling the world
May you take Him today to be yours...forever!!!

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
