God Can Get
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

By Gary James Smith
Other Poems by Gary James Smith


God can get to the deepest part of our hurt
And make His Presence known
A comforting peace in whatever circumstance
He careth for His own
I can rest in His favor
For He always knoweth best
And wait I do upon my God
For it's there where I am blessed

In that secret place
The sanctuary of my soul
I bathe in the grace He gives
Though the tempest rolls
He love for me overwhelming
He knows the path I'm on
And still...still in my heart
My Lord giveth a song

My faith is strong in Him
I know sin's deliverance
And by and through the Holy Spirit
I'm steadfast in endurance
For my Shepherd gently leadeth
In paths of righteousness
Though trials and testings come my way
My God will surely bless

So thank you Heavenly Father
For the faith in which I stand
For I know whatever befalls me
I'm in the Master's hand
So I'm giving thanks in all things
According to Thy Word
Beginning with this heartfelt praise
Praise you praise You Lord!

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
