Read The Word

Read the Word 
And let a tsaumi of truth assail you
Be overcome by the marvellous grace of God
Receive the love...of a loving Heavenly Father
Let it overflow you until faith is understood
My sins gone!...O hallelujah Jesus!
What great love our sin has lead You to
To leave...the very portals of Heaven
To make any individual
to fall in love with You

Your trademark...a Cross of shame
To the death...that we might have new life
Your other branding...praise God an empty Tomb
Hallowing You Lord...as our Resurrection and our life
For Thine is the Kingdom and the glory
Hallelujah for Your truth's prevailing power
All the hosts of Heaven continually praise Thy name
And still do I in this praising hour!

Your love is expressed in true joyous song
And touches... repentant hearts to the core
Who know the preciousness of Your shed blood
And have made decisions  to delve into sin no more
Read the Word
the Father’s will is found there
Where faith presides over seeking souls
God will bless Salvation to each seeker
Who has the Kingdom... of God now in His soul!

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
