The Resurrected Saviour Reigns
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

THE RESURRECTED SAVIOUR REIGNS

 

The resurrected Saviour reigns

With regal, royalty

Clothed in His righteousness alone

We find our purity.

Not one work of ours will merit

In Him, any favour

For we all are, unclean vessels

Until we meet the Saviour.

 

Then we see!  At last we see!

What sinners that we were

And how we needed His shed blood

To make us, in Him pure.

The Father now sees us in Him

We're under no condemnation

With thankful hearts we offer praise

For this so great salvation!

 

Hallelujah, I've been saved

I have been redeemed

So simple it now seems to me

His blood's what makes me clean

He died the just for the unjust

How worthy is that Lamb

When I repented of my sin

I met the Great I AM!

 

O tell that story Brother

Tell it Sister too

Nothing to be ashamed of this

That Saviour died for you.

All the world, it needs it

None other name under Heaven is given

But in that name of Jesus Christ

Where trusting is really living.

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
