The Truth Shines
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

The Truth Shines

The truth shines brighter than any light
And exposes the darkness of sin
It reaches to the very core of our being
And illuminates all that's within
There's no escaping the eyes of our God
For He knows us through and through
And every heart shall feel His power
Of the God with whom we have to do

Not one ounce of deceit will be missing
Nor any of dishonesty
But the Lord God our Creator will magnify
Any corruption found within thee
In the hidden heart of mankind
The truth shall give true revelation
And man's rejection as to what God has laid out
Will result in his loss of Salvation

How God's Word is so instrumental
As to our Spiritual disipline
When we take God's Word lightly and not treat it rightly
That's the moment our problems begin
May God help us to savour
The words of our Saviour
And may we delight to do His blessed will
For the One Who is the Way and the truth and the Life
Is the Harbor for lost soul's still...

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
