I'm So Thankful For That Shepherd

I'm So Thankful For That Shepherd

I'm so thankful for that Shepherd
Whom I know still leadeth me
I trust the path He takes me on
And lean on Him completely 
My confident and my guide
Praise God for His faithfulness
I'm never alone for I'm in His presence
And under His constant awareness

Nothing happens to me by chance
My God is close at hand
If I have faltering in my steps
My God He understands
He knows the weakness in my life
Ɓut praise God He is strong
And when I come to Him in prayer 
He giveth my heart a song

O hallelujah praise the Lord
For none other can satisfy
He giveth out grace to the highest degree 
In His bountiful supply
And any heart in need of forgiveness 
What on earth are you waiting for
Have you not heard?...It's found in God's Word...Christ is the open Door!!!

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
