May Your Truth

May Your Truth

May Your truth sink into my heart
And take up residence there
And leave me with Your testimony Father
Lending me to praise and prayer
For You are the Almighty God
The Alpha and Omega true
No other righteousness can be compared
As to what I have found in You

The Author and Finisher of our faith
Praise God we're in Your hands
And Your Word our blessed Testifier
Praise God the Bible stands
You loved me just as I was
A sinner...lost and undone
With a wonderful...unfailing love
Through Jesus Christ Your Son


O for a heart like David
That praised You in the Psalms
That held You as dear as You held Him
Safe in the Master's arms
There's none other place to find sweet rest
Then in You...my Lord and my God
Whet my appetite today afresh
To seek You in the Word!

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
