I've Learned To Trust

I've Learned To Trust

I've learned to trust the Hand of trust 
Who holds me to His breast
And feel the heart of compassion there
That seeks my utmost best
That hoovers over me everyday
Earnest to know my will
Will I continue to follow hard after God
And be obedient still

Will I test the waters of faith
As waves of grace over me flow
With the banner of hope before me
For I know that He loves me so
He never abandoned His purpose
For He came to seek and to save
Still He is calling faithfully
Come to the Lord today

Can't you feel His love for you
He has expressed it in so great a Salvation
For every heart that turns towards Christ
Will receive a divine revelation 
That God was in Christ reconciling the world
Faith..the entrance way by which to come
Seek ye the Lord while He may be found
And sinner you will find Him Home!
Seek ye the Lord while He may be found
And sinner you will find Him Home!!!

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
