The Grace of Wealth
Full of every good thing,
Through your faith and of the Word;
With the knowledge they all bring,
To a ripe mind that is spurred.
While the love fills your heart,
You may be full of the grace;
A desire to impart,
Feeling a righteous embrace.
I give you not a command,
But using a ready mind;
Testing others how they stand,
Of their love and being kind.
You see the grace of the Lord,
Even though that He had wealth;
Money He merely ignored,
To help His spiritual health.
So we have wealth through His need,
And profit for a new start;
As He sows the wealthy seed,
Rooted deep within the heart.
But wealth is more than money,
You can be rich in good thought;
And filled with righteous honey,
Through the blood that it was bought.
