The Uplifter Of My Heart

Praise God for the Uplifter of my heart
The true Counselor of my soul
The One in whom I'm completely satisfied with
For I'm under His full control
I have decided to follow Jesus Christ
And where He leads me I will go
About this I have no quams whatsoever
For hallelejah He has saved. my soul...

His love for me has won me over
I'm all in for surrendering
For hallelujah I have crowned Him in my heart
Praise God as the King of kings
Now I'm living with Royalty
And Royalty lives in me
Praise God He captured me through the love of His heart
And now He owns my loyalty!

His gift to me was insurmountable 
There was nothing of compare
For the One who shed His blood for me
He keeps me sheltered here
And under the wings of my Lord God Almighty
I've tasted of His gracious protection
And I'm enjoying abiding
here  in His presence
For praise God He's my Resurrection!

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
