If you go to Smith's myspace site, you can listen to a few of these songs, including the title track, "All I Owe," which I really enjoyed. I'd recommend listening to the song while reading the lyrics below.
All I Owe
Words: Robert Murray McCheyne and Matthew S. Smith
Music: Matthew S. Smith
When this passing world is done,
When has sunk yon glaring sun,
When we stand with Christ in glory,
Looking o’er life’s finished story,
Then, Lord, shall I fully know,
Not till then, how much I owe
All I owe you paid for me
From all I owe I’ve been set free
And all I owe proves your great mercy to me
When I stand before your throne,
Dressed in beauty not my own,
When I see you as you are
Love you with unsinning heart,
Then, Lord, shall I fully know,
Not till then, how much I owe
Chosen not for good in me,
Wakened up from wrath to flee,
Hidden in the Savior’s side,
By the Spirit sanctified,
Teach me, Lord, on earth to show,
By my love, how much I owe
