Some Songs

Some Songs

Some songs I have to tear up to
They resonate to my soul
Like the day of my Salvation
When Lord Jesus made me whole
The one named "Constantly Abiding"
Brought a memory's sweet refrain
The preciousness of knowing my Saviour
Praise be to His Holy name

The Spirit brought it home to me
That day I first believed
When I repented of my sin
And fell down on my knees
And asked Lord Jesus in my heart
In the morning by my bed
When joy and peace came In like a flood
Christ becoming my living Head

God may be searching for you today
Are you living with a void
Knowing something's missing in your life
An absence of peace and joy
Try a prayer of petition
"Dear God if you really exist
I want to know Christ as my Saviour
Lead me in the path of righteousness"

Then find yourself a quiet spot
Bring a bible and take a look
Let His Word speak to your heart
It will be the wisest step that you've ever took!
Make a decision to decide
Yes!...Today will be that blest day
I will trust in You Lord as my Saviour
And let Your songs become my stay!

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
