To The Cross

To The Cross

To the Cross...to the Cross
Come swiftly come!
Where there's mercy and grace available
For each needy one...
Not one soul is left behind
Who puts their faith in Christ
The blessing to us...who have believed
Because of His sacrifice

Our hallelujah's will not ring hollow
For He gives joy to such a degree
That everyone who trusts in Christ
Will rejoice for eternity!
Are you buying your lottery ticket
Hoping to win to the max
Well my friend Salvation is free
And that's a gospel fact

What is the cost of losing your soul
Have you ever given that much thought
Lord Jesus shed His precious blood
That your deliverance might be wrought
Repent today and turn to God
Know the joy of sins forgiven
And hallelujah's will mark the trail
For those who are truly living!

My life is hide with Christ in God
The Holy Spirit has sealed it
I'm more aware then I ever was
The transaction done when I kneeled it
And sent my prayer to God above
" Lord be merciful unto me"
My Father heard and honored His Word!
Praise God for Calvary...
My Father heard and honored His Word!
Praise God for Calvary!

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
