Heaven's Grocery Store
I was walking down life's highway a long time ago,
One day I saw a sign the read"Heaven's Grocery Store."
As I got a little closer,the door came open wide.
And when I came to myself,I was standing there 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 christian needed was in that grocery store,
And all you couldn't carry,you could come back for more.
First,I got some patience,love was in the same row,
Further down was understanding,you need that wherever you go.
I got a box or two of wisdom,and a bag or two of faith,
I just couldn't miss the Holy Ghost,for it was all over the place.
I stopped to get some strength and courage,to help me run
the race.
By then my basket was getting full,but I remembered I needed
some grace.
I didn't forget salvation,for salvation,that was free,
So I tried to get enough of that to save both you and me.
Then I started up to the counter to pay my grocery bill,
For I thought I had everything to do my Master's will.
As I went up the isle,I saw prayer and I just had to put that in,
For I knew when I stepped outside,I would run right into sin.
Peace and joy were all plentiful,they were on the last shelf,
Song and praisees were hanging near,so I just helped myself.
Then I said to the angel,"Now how much do I owe?"
He just smiled and said,"Just take them everywhere you go."
Again ,I smiled at him ans said,"How much do I owe?"
He smiled again and said,"My child,Jesus paid your bill a long time ago."
