Lord Help Us

Lord Help Us

Lord help us in our attempts
To reach a soul for Christ
We oftimes feel so helpless Lord
To explain Your sacrifice
We know Your Word is the answer
But men won't check out Your Book
We tell them over and over again
But will they really look?!!!

We fail so often in prayer Lord
For we forget to pray
We get so caught up with the incidentals of life
That it takes our burden away
We pray for focusing power
To keep our eyes on Christ
For soon we know You're coming Lord
What has been our sacrifice?!!!

Give us a passion for soul's dear Lord
With a compassionate heart
Filled with the love of God for men
Help us Lord to do our part!
Being faithful in service
Doing the will of the Lord
Letting our light shine for the glory of God
And to the honoring of His word!!!

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
