I was walking down life's highway a long time ago. One day I saw a sign that 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 inside. I saw a host of angels. They were standing everywhere. One handed me a basket and said my child shop with care. Everthing 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 everywhere you go.
I got a box or two of Wisdom, a bag or two of the Spirit for it was all over the place.
I stopped to get some Strength and Courage to help me run this 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 for my grocery bill, for I thought I had everything to do my Master's will.
As I went up the aisle 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 plentiful, they were on the last shelf. Song and Praises wer 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 and said, How Much Do I Really Owe?
He smiled again and said, My Child, Jesus Paid Your Bill A Long Time Ago!
