He Tasted Death That I Might Taste

He Tasted Death That I Might Taste Life

He tasted death that I might taste life
Praise God for the Cross of Christ
He came on a mission to save my soul
And became sins Sacrifice
The Lamb of God...Hallelujah!
Now does our Shepherding
And leads us on our way to Glory
Great wonder that we shout and sing!

What a name is Jesus Christ
Who alone has power to save us
And every soul that trusts in Him
The grave has no power over us
My Resurrection and my Life
Hallelujah what a Saviour!
Who alone can give an eternal hope
Who once were slaves to sin here

Taste and see that the Lord is good
There's an open invitation
For whomsoever shall call upon the name of the Lord
Will enjoy His so great Salvation
The miracle of a new beginning 
Can be yours when you're born again
What in the world are you waiting for?!!!
Come know Him today my friend!!!

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
