Live in the Light

LIVE IN THE LIGHT

Live in the light of that hope
Jesus is coming again
Looking forward to that day
When He calls us home
Earthly things will fade away
Heaven becomes even dearer
When our eyes are fixed on Jesus
Amen we see a lot clearer

Our hearts are captured By His love
Yes His love has lifted me
And put my sins clean off His slate
That day at Calvary
And in my heart a brand new song
That I could not sing before
Filled with the Spirit of my God
As praises from it pour

All glory... honor and laud
That God should die for me
Creator... Redeemer... Saviour... Friend
Poured out at Calvary
Still there's power in that blood
Through that precious name of Jesus
Walk in the Light... The Light of the Cross
Remember God always sees us!

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
