Redemption - the Game

Ever played our favorite game? Not monopoly or oligopoly You know, the other one So what, they all end the same The one with all the money Always wins the game My game is redemption That's not how you play it First you count how many souls You saved along the way You count up all your blessing cards You save them to the end You add up your donations All gratuities and sponsoring All pledges big or small All helping hero biscuits You count up your kids And count up all theirs You count up any other life You helped in any way So guess who wins the game Guess who goes to heaven You might be the one Try to spin a seven
