We Are Not Only Saved By Grace

We Are Not Only Saved By Grace

We are not only saved by grace
But it is a surviving grace as well
Day in and day out at our disposal
Lord Jesus doeth all things well
And by His provision of the Spirit
We can have victory over sin
Hallelujah for such a redemption
When we place our trust in Him

Never a completeness such as ours
And it's offered by the Divine
And no more glorious wonder to comprehend
Than that I am His and He is mine
Praise God I'm saved by grace through faith
Christ is my hiding place
And offers daily... oh hallelujah!
For us His surviving grace!

Where sin abounds grace much more abounds
For it has been given power from Heaven
To fortify every believing soul
All the while that we are living
Great is God's faithfullness
Who 's mercy endures forever
In bestowing upon us "surviving grace!"
Hallelujah what a Saviour!

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
