God Has A Real Way Of Reaching Hear

God Has A Real Way Of Reaching Hearts

God has a real way of reaching hearts
After all... He is the heart's Qualifier
He knows just what can touch our heartstrings
And draw our thoughts to things that are much higher
It might be a single act of kindness
It may be thoughts about His Creation
It might become a pending illness that we'll have
That will turn our hearts towards Salvation

A funeral service of the celebration of hope
Of a loved one who has recently died
Or simply a tear falling down from a face
For He knows each tear that you've cried
For God is everywhere present
And there's no occasion that He's missed
And His delight is to see souls saved
And having the realization of being blessed

Yes God has a real way of reaching hearts 
I know for He has reached mine
He drew me by His cords of love
That His Word had set in line
Freedom from the guilt of sin...hallelujah!
Forgiveness from His wondrous favor
And the grace to greet each day afresh
Hallelujah for Christ my Saviour!!!

Just to have a God like that is amazing
One who's after my own good
What a blessing when a soul is awakened to the fact
That God is living in your neighborhood 
Why He's just a prayer away...
Call upon Him and He will hear
For God has a way of reaching hearts
And to Him your heart is very dear!!!

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
