I'm Resting in the Arms

I'M REST ING IN THE ARMS

I'm resting in the arms Of a loving Father
Sheltered...under His wings
My soul now at peace
For my sins are forgiven
Truly my heart now sings

Never was joy like this
Ever known
Until I met the Lord
It's there for the offering
"Please check it out"
It's found within God's Word

Don't wait until tomorrow
Today you can receive it
Trust Him and obey
Your heart will feel a lot lighter
Your days will be much brighter
If you repent and change your ways

God will lead you to it
He will bring you through it
Let Him be your Stay
Don't wait now any longer
While Satan tempts you stronger
Come to Jesus Christ today!

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
