“RICH”

 OFTEN HE WOULD SAY HE DIDN’T HAVE MUCH..AN

OLD CAR..A FEW CLOTHES, A BIBLE, HIS GUITAR

A HEART OVERFLOWIN’ WITH LOVE FOR GOD….

AND HE SHARED WHAT HE HAD……WITH ME….

HOW I LOVE TO HEAR HIM PLAY HIS GUITAR..THEN

SING HIS HEART OUT WITH LOVE FOR GOD..READ

TO ME FROM HIS BIBLE…..THEN BOW HIS HEAD

AND PRAY BITS OF HEAVEN DOWN ALL AROUND US

OFTEN HE WOULD SAY HE DID NOT HAVE MUCH..AN OLD

CAR, HIS BIBLE, HIS BELOVED GUITAR..A HEART FILLED

WITH LOVE FOR GOD..SO MUCH HUMILITY..THE MAN

WAS “RICH” BEYOND HIS VERY WILDEST….DREAMS…

GIVE HIM A MINUTE OR TWO..HE’D CRANK OUT

 A SONG FOR GOD..A STRAIGHT SHOT FROM HIS

 HEART…ANOTHER MINUTE…HE COULD AND WOULD

CREATE A BEAUTIFUL MELODY BEHIND IT..TOO

CHORUS

TELL ME HOW YOU MEASURE WEALTH TODAY…CARS, HOMES,

MATERIAL THINGS…I’D LOVE TO TELL YOU ABOUT MY “RICH”

FRIEND..HE OWNS A BIBLE, HIS BELOVED GUITAR..SO MUCH

HUMILITY…A HEART FILLED WITH LOVE FOR GOD.. “RICH”

BEYOND HIS WILDEST DREAMS.. YES…MY VERY RICHEST FRIEND

MY VERY RICHEST FRIEND….SO “RICH”…… MY RICHEST FRIEND
