True Wealth

M ost people think that wealth is in money
I think it's something much more
L ife has a way of turning out funny
L osing site of what we're searching for
I nnocence is priceless in many ways
O nly the young can know of its wealth
N one of us know our number of days
A nd some doesn't cherish their health
I try to be thankful for the riches God gave
R ealizing it's mine to borrow
E njoy His riches 'til the time of the grave, never regreting tomorrow
