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.'
