Our Soul's Medicine 

Our soul's medicine praise God
Is found in music and the Word
They become our combination plate
In the worshipping of the Lord
For the wonderfulness of Jesus Christ
Had true expression in His love
Always having the interest of others above His own
And in His going about and doing good

His life has produced many a song
For music gives a soul expression
To give adoration back to God
Especially for forgiveness's blessing
Our heart's are built for praising
For acknowledgement of that One
Who humbled Himself in lowliness
Yet who gave His life for our sin

Glad day of our redemption
When in the acknowledgement of our sin
The Holy Spirit joyously indwelt us
And our heart began to sing
Heaven knows of those hallowed moments
When the heart receives its King
And the angels up there high fiving each other
As together they're rejoicing

And the Word gives glad verification
There's life in the Crucified One
Full atonement O hallelujah!
Praise to that all sufficient One!
His Word is the lamp to light our way
Now...that is music to our ears
And what a new song we'll sing that day
When we all in Heaven appear...

Hallelujah for that Lamb...hallelujah!
What better word could express
For on thar moment of repentance of sin
Our soul's begin to dance
They kick up their heels in pure jubilation
The Victory has been Won
The Lord Jesus Christ has given forgiveness for sin
And Hallelujah that puts the praises on!!!

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
