Shop In Heaven's Grocery Store
Written for me way back in 1998.

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 and 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 needed was in that grocery store.
And all you could not 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 it was all over the place. I stopped to get some Strength and Courage to help me run the race.
By then my basket was getting full, but I remember I needed some Grace. I didn't forget Salvation, for salvation - that was free. So, I tried to get enough of that to save you and me.

Then I started towards the counter to pay my grocery bill. For I thought I had everything to do my Master's will. As I went up to 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 so plentiful, as they were on the last shelf. Song and Praises were hanging near, so I just helped myself.
Then I said "Now how much do I owe?" He just smiles and said, "Just take them everywhere you go..."
"How much do I really owe?" He just smiled again and said, "My Child, Jesus Paid your bill a long time ago."

Dedicated to Mr. Henry V. Cabrera
May God continue to bless you always.
