Great Gains
True faith with peace of mind,
Helps you see once was blind;
And being of great profit,
That heightens your spirit.
For we came on this earth,
The time of our birth;
With nothing to proclaim,
And leaving with the same.
But be in a good mood,
As long as you have food;
And roof over your head,
With a place for a bed.
For money turns away,
Faith by making you stray;
Causing evil to root,
In your heart to pollute.
Faith and love makes you kind,
Giving a quiet mind;
To make a behavior,
Gentle as your Savior.
