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.
So 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 out side
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."
