You Can Embrace Us

You Can Embrace Us

I thank you Lord that oftimes
You can embrace us through a song
You touch the deepest part of us
As to its words ...we are drawn
We know of the empty feelings
Before we knew You Lord
And silent praise consumes us now
With the blessings of Your Words...

Whenever I hear the birds a chirping
My mind reflects to you
For you note even the sparrows falling
Such is the love contained in you
And the world has never known such power
As in Your wondrous presentation
When You raised Jesus from the dead
And inaugurated Salvation!

O yes there's a song to be singing
In the heart's of the soul set free
For forgiveness cannot but evoke hallelujah's 
I know its done that work in me
Praise God You have embraced me Lord
With the love of Your own dear Son
And have indwelt me with the Spirit of rejoicing
So I can praise You now in song!

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
