My New Car

My New Car

Look my new car

My new watch

Clubs that’ll let me hit far

Look my new boat

Ain’t she a beaut’

Can’t wait to put her into my moat

Oh a Rolex the newest one

So unbelievably precise

Definitely second to none

Who’s that at my door at this hour

I spy a dreadful sight

Everything has just gone sour

For this visitor was a messenger

Not sent from God

But from that place lower

Sharing he asked of me

Of course not

I was not speaking jokingly

Suddenly my life now turned

Upside down

I feel like butter just churned

These treasures apparently I was to distribute evenly

To always be generous

Not like me miserly

My chance is now over

I did not notice the chains

To my own greed was I a lover

Not of man as I should

Hear my story listen

For I did far less then I could

You cannot take it with you never ever

Oh why did I not learn

Now in this fury forever

Please hear and heed if you can

Listen always to Jesus

Not the store mannequin

Amen
