Lord Thank You For The Resource Of Faith

Lord thank You for the resource of faith
And its unending supply
When we dig into the Word of God
That truth cannot be denied
For faith cometh by hearing
And hearing by the Word of God
And every heart that's longing for change
Faith will be understood

For without faith it is impossible to please God
For we must believe that He is
That's the real beginning of faith's journey
To find out the life that He gives
He leads us to His treasure chest 
Found within the Word
And by the Spirit's drawing power
He leads us to the Lord...

Faith...the substance of things hoped for
The evidence of things not seen
Faith mighty faith the promise sees
And learns on God to lean
In His everlasting arms
I've found my surest rest
Lord thank You for the resource of faith
For it was there that I was blest!

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
