There's Been So Many Times
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

There's Been So Many Times 

There's been so many times at just the right time
That God has come through for me
In each circumstance it wasn't by chance
But arranged providentially
I knew it was God by the way things evolved
He had to have His hand in this
As things began to work out
Hallelujah I'd shout
It was something that brought me great bliss

It prospered my faith to see God undertake
In ways that I could not explain
What had seemed like some problems
He wondrously solved them
Great cause for me to give Him praise
I know I'm His child
although the rides sometimes wild
God has it all under control
My job is to trust Him and never to  question
The One who can make any man whole

O hallelujah when God comes through for you
And puts things together somehow
When you're praying in earnest as to the things on your list
And sometimes when you don't know the how
How often I praise Him praise God its amazing
How much He sure cares about me
I'm enjoying  my living with the God of thanksgiving
Hallelujah for Calvary!

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
