A Life Changing God

A Life Changing God

Lord You're a life changing God
You turn things right side up
You have tasted of the dregs of our sin
And drank of sin's bitterest cup
But death could not hold back Your power
For You are life's Provider
Your great mission of showing us love
Has extended Your love much higher

O precious power in the blood
That procured our righteousness
And gives the glory back to God
Who has given You Lord to bless
Major transformation here
That can cleanse us on the inside
Praise the Lord for that so great Salvation
That can burst our bubble of pride

Humbled by Your Holiness
Your longsuffering for our sin
Your holding back our deserved wrath
And substituting grace therein
How can we but...but praise You Lord
For You are the life changing God
The greatest blessing that can ever be had
Is when we find You in the Word!

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
