Eternity As A Present Possession

Eternity As A Present Possession 

Eternity as a present possession 
Hallelujah praise God for that gift
If there's anything that can raise your spirit
Amen it will give your's a lift
The Holy Spirit now living within
Hallelujah the Spirit of Christ
The fear of death has lost its hold
Beause of Christ's Sacrifice

That name that never loses its power
For it was preordained
That precious name of Jesus Christ
That forever will remain
For His shed blood still guarantees
The gift of amazing grace
Eternal life upon the repentance of sin
When Salvation has taken place

I love that my Redeemer lives
And every day is a reminder
That when I leave this old world
My sin is left behind here
The token of that reality 
Is being sealed by the Holy Spirit
My spirit bearing witness with His
His Sonship now I wear it!

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
