Heaven's Grocery Store

by Ron DeMarco

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 blanket and said, "My child shop with care,

everything a Christian needs is in that grocery store,

and all you couldn't carry, come back the next day for more.

First, I got some Patience, Love was in the same row,

further down was Uunderstanding, needed everywhere you go.

I got a box or two of Wisdom, a bag or two of Faith,

I just couldn't miss the Holy Ghost, it was all over the place.

I stopped to get some Strength and Courage to help me

run the race, but then my basket was getting full and

I remembered I needed some Grace.

I didn't forget Salvation which like the others was free,

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

Then I started 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 aisle, I saw Prayer and 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 shelf.

Song and Praises were hanging near so I just helped myself.

Then, I said to the Angel "How much do I owe?"

the Angel smiled and said "Just take them everywhere you go".

Again I politely asked "How much do I really owe?

The Angel smiled again and said, "My Child, Jesus Paid

Your Bill A Long Time ago."
