' What  Is  The  Cost  of  A  Soul ? ... '


(Matt. 16: 26 / Mark 8: 36-37 / Ps. 49: 6-20 / Matt. 6: 33 / Matt. 13: 10–15)


Would You Sell Your Soul ?
You Know: for Money, Wealth & Fortune ?
and How Much Green, Silver or Gold
Gets Your Colorblind-Crave Sold Soon ? …

Would You Place A Large Amount
On Your Lost Life's Value ?
And Let Anybody Buy You Out …
Now Really, Would "You" Sell You ?

Would You Take A Quintillion–Red–Cents ?
For Doing Someone's Crooked-Fraud Job ?
That Steals Away Your Straight-Sense
Leaving You With Only Bad-Checks For GOD ?

What Would Be Your Soul's Total ?
What All Expenses You'd Want Paid ?
What Benefits – Sweeten Deal Proposal ?
What Profits Would Win Out – Over Afraid ?

Or Would You Take A Bank-Note
Where You'd Fill In The Funding-Price
For Cars, Jewelry, Houses, Clothes & Boats
… but Had To Give Up Christ's Sacrifice ?
(John 3: 16)

Now, A Blank-Check For Your Soul …
Renders Your Human-Heart Unaware
& An Empty-Heart Is Never Whole …
Full-Hunger Is Always There
(Eccl. 5: 10)

A Blank-Check For Your Soul …
Causes A Cancelled-Check-Conscience
And Eyes Are Always Cold …
‘Cause They Can't Close When Sleep's Noxious

A Blank-Check For Your Soul …
Causes A Body's Unhealthy-Unbalance
Whether Young or Whether Old …
It Turns Into A Broke-Down-Wannabe-Palace

So, Would You Sell Your Soul For Success ?
For Sex, Drugs, or Rock ‘n Roll ?
or Rap or Country Records-Rated – Best
but to Win – You Must Worship Idols ?

Would You Sell Your Soul Still …
For A Big Lottery's Winning Ticket
Or A Billion-Dollar Corporate-Deal
If You Had To Become Wicked ?
(Ps. 37: 10 / Ps. 58: 3 / Rom. 12: 19 / Rev. 21: 8)

Is Your Soul Up For Auction ?
If So Here's A Word of Caution …
If  Thinking of Selling Some Personal-Portion
Ask If It's A Non-Refundable-Notion ?

Would You Place A Huge Sum
On Your Life's Estate Value ?
Remember, JAH Sent HIS Beloved Son
So Hammer's Due-Date Wouldn't Nail–You !
(John 19: 18)

… & So Finance of Faith Wouldn't Fail-You
& Surprise-Stamps Wouldn't Mail-You
and Eternity's Envelope Wouldn't Jail-You
for Only GOD's Benevolence Can Bail-You …

My (Brother & Sister) Human-Beings
Don't Be That Desperate For Material Things !
GOD Takes Care of Physical & Spiritual-Means
( & Soon All  HIS Will Live Like Kings & Queens)
(Matt. 6: 33)

For That Is The Promise of GOD – Supreme
Haven't You Read The Holy Bible's Theme ?
(1 John 4: 8 / Matt. 28: 19,20 / Matt. 6: 33 / Ps. 145: 16 / Rev. 4: 11)
HE Made Us – Living Souls (We Gleam!)
(Gen. 1: 26  /  Gen. 2: 7)
So Don't Sell Your Soul To Achieve Schemes !

You Need Your Soul To Fulfill Your Dreams
But ‘That Buyer' For Your Soul Makes It Seem
Like You Must Have It All Now – Full-Steam !
(but really wants to make your soul unclean)
(Gen. 3: 4, 5)

… into a corroded, torn & ugly screen …
But Keep Your Soul's Sanity – Safe & Keen
For One Thing I Do Know I've Seen …
‘Don't Need To Sell Soul If GOD's On Team !'

But If Determined To Be Filthy-Rich (1 Tim. 6: 10)
Might Wind Up ‘A Head-In-Dirt-Ostrich'
Or May Get Your Hands Stuck In Nasty-Niche
So Don't Kid Yourself – When Digging A Ditch !

… to Lay Down In A Bed of Lies
With Principles & Honor Compromised
‘Cause You Sold Your Soul – For Play-Supplies !
To ‘The Bidder' With The Same-Bitter-Size-Price

Would You Sell Your Soul For Your Belly ?
Or Because of A Family To Feed ?
True Loved Ones Would Rather Eat Crumbs In Jelly
(Ca. 8: 7)
Than If You Sold Your Soul For Greed

Would You Sell Soul To Escape Some Pain ?
Or Sell Soul Because You're Already Ashamed ?
Would You Sell It & Seek Someone Else To Blame ?
(Gen. 3: 10–13)
And When You Sell It – What Would You Gain ?
(Anger, Envy & An End Like Cain's – Gen. 4: 3-16)

Would You Sell Your Soul – Sell Your Body ?
Do You View Your Soul As Being That Cheap ?
Could Your Soul Really Be That Shoddy ?
Who First Trained You & Treated You Like Beef ?

Would You Sell Your Soul For Power ?
Would You Sell Your Soul For Fame ?
Well, In Your Last-Alive Hour …
You'll Be Sorry – & "Forever" Will Erase Your Name

For There On That Blood Blank-Check
You Signed On That Line of Re-Collect
and ‘That Buyer' of Your Soul's Bad-Debt
Demands Full Balance When Sin Adds Up To Death
(Luke 22: 31  /  Rom. 6: 23)

You've Heard, ‘You Can't Take It With You'
Yeah – Tho' Someone Could Put It In The Hole
But It'll Get Ripped-Off, Rusted or Rot Thru Too
… if You Done Sold Your Soul ! …

See, Everybody's Got A ‘ Bank of Belief '
What They Put Stock & Bonds & Their Soul's Deeds
but A Phony–Exchange – Bankrupted Adam & Eve
(Gen. 3: 4-6)
(and man's been selling their souls ever since for relief)
So, Is Your Banker – The Saver – or The Thief ?

Now, You Don't Even Have To Hear My Voice
To Know What I Think About That Choice
If You Sold Your Soul – For A Cash-Crash-Course
GOD Knows – None Made You Sell It By Force

*  *  *  *  *  *  *

… I Am Not Rich or Worldly Renown
But My Soul Purchased-Peace When I Lay Down
& I Don't Have All The Luxuries Everywhere Around
But I've Got My Family & Future Income Found

Yes, I've Got Plenty of Living-Expense-Bills
Also Got Some of Life's Unwanted-Ills
But I Never Sold My Soul For Twisted-Fix or Thrills
& My Soul Don't Worry ‘Bout Deathly-Chills

& Heart Ain't Heavy With Some Guilty-Grab-Feel
Oh, I Don't Have That Mansion On The Hill
(But One Day Soon, I Know I Will)
So I Can Wait & Get Ready For It Until …

(when all my dreams – GOD makes Real)
(Ps. 145: 16)
for My Trust-Fund Is Filled ‘Til It Spills !
Cause All Needy-Nightmares – GOD Makes Nil
Yes, Our Almighty Father Has That Powerful Skill

My Big-Mamma Said: ‘When You're Born-That's A Bill
& When You Die-That's The Last Debt-Deal'
So Enjoy What You Pay For In Between Each Build
"But A Precious Soul Never Sell Out or Help Kill"

& When I Lay Down In Some Poor Patch of Earth
& All That's Left Is What I Was Credited At Birth
Flesh, Blood, Bones: Charged In GOD's Memory Hearth
My Soul To GOD – WHO Made Me Priceless Worth
(Job 14: 14, 15)

*  *  *  *  *  *  *

What Is The Cost of A Bankrupt Soul ?
Well, Only GOD & That Ruined-Soul Knows …
and Was It A Bargain As Its Bust-Breath Goes ? …
(to The Snake Hissing Evilly To Whom It Was Sold)
(1 Pet. 5: 8  /  Rev. 12: 9)
