Soul Satisfying

Soul Satisfying

Soul satisfying is my Lord
I know it to the depths of me
Faith's transaction has won my heart 
Hallelujah for Calvary
It took a Cross to bring it home
That the burden for my sin
Was borne alone by the sinless Son
Who placed my sin-debt on Him

His blood sufficient...O precious fount
That still pours forth in grace
And offers forgiveness to repentant hearts
That seek the Master's face
Shun the untruths that turn you away
From really seeking the Lord 
But keep your focus and meditation
On the unadulterated truth of His Word

For there is life in a look at the Crucified One 
Look to the Lamb and live 
Only one name under Heaven to be found
Who a wonderful Salvation can give 
No need to look to another for help
No need to look for another supplying 
For there's not a Friend like the lowly Lord Jesus 
For the Lord Jesus Christ...is soul satisfying!

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
