Your Three Prizes So Great

We prize so much of the physical which is really just pure vanity thinking they'll satisfy your every need but actually, it all questions your sanity Our greatest gift is our health what are we without being well appreciate God's wondrous gift look after yourself, protect your shell Our greatest wealth is our contentment just to know the peace of heart and mind to be still knowing such a deep calm this is a real treasure, who indeed can find Our best relationship is faithfulness what price can you put on such a thing? great to know one that sticks close to the end a faithful friend always through thick and thin These three prizes are so very great appreciate them for your own gain you may lose them if not careful wrap them around you out of the rain (Quote: Health is the greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth, faithfulness the best relationship - Anon. )
