Heart Belief Is Tantamount
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

Heart Belief Is Tantamount 

Heart belief is tantamount
To the salvation of a soul
We turn over so many things in our mind
So we think that that's the way to go
To find out what's true peace and joy
We try the ways of the world
And find out by cause and effect
That we definitely need to be schooled

Wise is the man who seeks after council
And hopefully more...he seeks after God
He shall be rewarded for his spiritual efforts
And be blessed hallelujah with knowing the  Lord...
For great and greatly to be praised
Is the God of our Salvation
Who provided praise God...through the shedding of Christ's blood
The future of our Resurrection!!!

The earlier you can pray is the better
To find the Lord in your youth is a blessing 
And find Him you will
when you search in the Word
And find out about repentance and confessing
For there'a a sacred place of reservation
For those who seek the Lord
Who have a broken and a contrite heart
In the presence of our God...

Then there's an amazement that's ongoing
That we can be... saved by grace
And forgiven of all of our past sins
When Salvation has taken place
And the power of the love of Jesus
From the only One ever good...
Floods our heart's with joy unspeakable
For the glory of the Lord...

You can never go down a dead end road
And think you're going to get anywhere
Doing same old after same old
Has frustration elements in the air
Take the wisdom of a Father
The fear of God begins your winning
Call upon the Lord Jesus Christ today
And He'll set your sails on a new beginning!!!

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
