GOD'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.

They were standing everywhere
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 "Now 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."
