"VISION OF THOUGHT"
"HEAVEN'S GROCERY STORE" I was walking down life's highway 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 a human needed was in that grocery store. 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 it was all over the place. I stopped to get some STRENGTH, And COURAGE To help me run this Life. By 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 both you and me. Then I started up to the counter to pay my grocery bill, For I thought I had everything to do the MASTER'S will. As I went up the aisle,I saw PRAYER And I just had to put that in, For I knew when I stepped outside, I would run into SIN. PEACE AND JOY were plentiful; they were last on the shelf. SONG and PRAISE were hanging near, so I just helped myself. Then I said to the angel, "Now, how much do I owe?" He smiled and said, "Just take them everywhere you go." Again, I smiled and said, "How much do I really owe?" He smiled again and said, "MY CHILD, GOD PAID YOUR BILL A LONG, LONG TIME AGO."
