Heaven's Grocery Store

I was walking along 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 lotof angels, they were standing everywhere.

One handed me a basket and said:

"My child shop with care."

Everything a person needed was in that grocery store,

and all you couldn't carry you could come back that next day 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 of wisdom, a bag or two of faith,

I couldn't miss 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 is free.

I tried to get enough of that to save both you an me.

Then I started to go up to the counter,

to pay my grocery bill,

for I thought I had enough of everything to do my master's will.

As I went up the aisle I saw a prayer, and

I just had to put it in,

for I knew when I stepped outside,

I would run right into sin.

Peace and joy were plentiful,

they were on the last self.

Song and praise were hanging near, so I just helped myself.

Then I said to the angel,

"How much do I owe?"

He just smiled and said,

"Take them everywhere you go."

Again I smiled and said,

"How much do I really owe?"

He smiled and said,

"My child the good Lord paid your bill a long time ago."
