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.
And one angel said,"
My child, shop with care." 

Everything a Christian needs 
was in the grocery store.
And all you couldn't carry you 
could come back the next day 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 faith.
I just couldn't miss the Holy Ghost 
for He was all over the place.

I stopped to get some strength & courage
to help me run the race.
But then my basket was getting full, 
but I remembered I needed some grace.

I didn't forget salvation
for salvation was free.
So, I tried to get enough of that 
to save you and me.

Then I started to the counter to 
pay my grocery bill.
For I thought I had everything to do 
my Masters will.

As I went up the aisle, I saw prayer and
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 were hanging near
so I just helped myself.

I asked,
How much do I owe?
He just smiled and said,
just take them everywhere you go.

Then I said, How much do I really owe?
He smiled and said,
My child, Jesus paid your bill
a long time ago.
