Money Pays Not Everything

M-oney pays not everything, 
O-ne coin though has value; 
N-ineteenth September morn
A-llows you to buy anew.

F-ame, honor and power
A-re probably bought in time; 
Y-our life though is precious, 
E-ven priceless beyond any dime.

M-oney pays not everything, 
A-lthough it's so important; 
R-iches on earth that huge
C-ost less than wisdom of the ant.
I-n ensuring salvation the words of the Father bring; 
A-im to take His free mercy for money pays not everything.
