HEAVEN'S GROCERY STORE

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."
Everything I needed was in that grocery store.
And all you couldn't carry you could come back the next day for more.

First I got patience, and love was in the same row.
Further down was understanding. You need it everywhere you go.

I got a bag of wisdom and bag or two of faith.
I just couldn't miss the Holy Ghost. It was all over the place.
I stopped to get strength and courage to help me run the race.
By then my basket was setting full, but I remembered I needed some grace.

I didn't forget salvation, for salvation it was free.
So I tried to get enough of that to save both you and me.
I started to the counter to pay my grocery bill.
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 it in.
For I knew when I stepped outside I would run right to sin.
Peace and joy were plentiful, they were on the last shelf.
Songs and praises hanging near, so I just helped myself.

Then I said to the Angel, "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, He paid your bill
a long, long time ago."
