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 can't carry,
come back the next day for more.

First, I got some Patience,
Love was in the same row.
Further down was Understanding,
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 this race,
but then my blanket was getting full,
and I remembered I needed 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 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."
