God...Our Instrument Of Grace

Praise God for Salvation
In the gifting of His Son
Who transports us from the kingdom of darkness
To Christ the enlightening One
Who gives joy with our pardon
Peace that we've never known before
And a heart that can say...Hallelujah!
And mean it like it had never known before

Forgiveness for our sin and transgressions
Love for our family and friends
Even love for all of our enemies
The love of God has wondrous long suffering
Now forgetting those things which are behind me
I press on for the highest calling of God
Seeking to tell others of this Saviour
Sharing the importance of God's  Word

Hallelujah the Spirit of God is in me
Not one iota of a doubt have I in that
I know God has changed my life completely
His Word has backed me up with that fact
He's saved me and sealed me forever
My eternal life is totally guaranteed 
God.. our instrument of grace!
Through Hesus Christ has met this sinner's need!

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
