Gary James Smith (Sept.22,1946 / Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario)
A CHILDLIKE FAITH
Give me a childlike faith Lord
Childlike to believe
Accepting without hesitation
What I will receive
When I ask You to save me
Salvation is so near
Inviting You into my heart Lord
Your immediately there
Trusting in Your promises
Yea, yea, and Amen
You have spoken, ' It is finished! '
Abides my soul in Him
Sin's power over me is broken
I have victory in Christ
My cost, just to surrender
You've paid the ransom price
Cleansed, O Hallelujah
New beginnings, praise You Lord
Saving grace all sufficient
Faith believing in Your Word
Burden bearer precious Jesus
Lowly Saviour meek and mild
You have paved the way for sinners
By faith in You (As a little child)
