HEAVEN`S GROCERY STORE
|
As I was walking down life's highway many years ago
I came upon a sign that read Heavens Grocery Store.
|
|
When I got a little closer the doors swung open wide
And when I came to myself I was standing inside.
|
|
|
I saw a host of angels.
|
|
|
One handed me a basket and said "My child shop with care."
Everything a human needed was in that grocery store And what you could
not carry you could come back for more.
|
|
|
First I got some Patience.
|
|
|
Love was in that same row.
|
|
|
Further down was Understanding, you need that everywhere you
go.
|
|
|
I got a box or two of Wisdom and Faith a bag or two.
|
|
|
And Charity of course I would need some of that too.
|
|
|
I couldn't miss the Holy Ghost It was all over the place.
|
|
|
And then some Strength and Courage to help me run this race.
|
|
|
My basket was getting full but I remembered I needed Grace,
|
|
And then I chose Salvation for Salvation was for free
I tried to get enough of that to do for you and me.
|
|
Then I started to the counter to pay my grocery bill,
For I thought I had everything to do the Masters will.
As I went up the aisle I saw Prayer and put that in,
For I knew when I stepped outside I would run into sin.
|
|
|
Peace and Joy were plentiful, the last things on the shelf.
|
|
|
Song and Praise were hanging near so I just helped myself.
|
|
Then I said to the angel "How how much do I owe?"
He smiled and said "Just take them everywhere you go."
Again I asked "Really now, how much do I owe?"
"My child " he said, "God paid your bill a long, long time ago."
