Paying Back
Evil borrows never paying back,
And you holding an empty sack;
Thinking to have the upper hand,
Treating you like a grain of sand.
But if you are truly within Christ,
You do know how He sacrificed;
Worth more than all of the cash,
That you ever could try to stash.
Those who are greedy and hoard,
Are not true believers of the Word;
For in the Word if you truly abide,
You know that God will provide.
Everything here is on loan to us,
And when we are sharing is a plus;
God not man created all on earth,
Only He knows what its true worth.
Depart from evil and their ways,
For in the end it is you that pays;
Anything else worth a grain of salt,
But you are priceless to be bought.
