A Contented Heart

Acres of Diamond Mountains of gold Rivers of silver riches untold. All these together can’t buy you or me Peace when we’re sleeping, and a conscience That’s free. A heart that is contented and a satisfied mind These are the treasures money can’t buy But if you have Jesus, there’s wealth In your soul, more than acres of diamonds And mountains of gold. A contented heart will always shine through Despite all the bad things that happen to you. His line is never busy always on the other end Of the phone. His promises NEVER fail, he’ll Never leave us alone.

We humans are so rarely content. You work so hard to get something only to find it brings little pleasure. I agree whole heartedly with you Abe, only God can satisfy. Ck for soup mail
