He Raises From The Dead

He Raises From The Dead

He raises from the dead...hallelujah!
Our hope for sinner's slain
Who voluntarily came in love
All praise be to His name
Who magnified by gift of grace
The mercy of our God
That true forgiveness can be felt
Hallelujah for that Lord!

The sin that came for our demise
Was dealt a deathly blow
For when Christ became sin for us
He washed us white as snow
What a grand transaction there was done
Turning darkness into light
For our repentance gains a Kingdom
Where there will never again be night!

To live by faith is pleasing to God
For it honors Him through the Word
Showing the truth of His righteousness
And the power that's in Christ's blood
For my redeemer lives...hallelujah!
The One who can give a rejoicing heart
And maintain its permanency forever!
My God how great thou art!

No wonder I have crowned Him Lord of all
For He gives a complete Salvation
Not only saving us from the penalty of sin
But making us a new creation!
For now alive in Jesus Christ
We know that it was worth it all!
For worthy is the Lamb of God!
Call you hear the Shepherds call?!!!

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
