You can’t buy your way into heaven,
salvation is not for sale . . .
on your own merit you can’t get there
if you try you’ll only fail.
You can’t shop around for grace,
it’s a free gift God gave to all
you can’t pay for His mercy
if you don’t heed salvation’s call.
You can’t invest a single cent,
to get your name in the Book of Life
you can’t bankroll your way out
of the pit of eternal strife!
You can’t finance deliverance,
it’s only there if you repent
you can’t fund spiritual healing
you must God’s goodness accept.
You can’t pick up the tab to heaven,
Jesus already paid the price . . .
you must believe His life for you
He willingly had to sacrifice!

“And again I say unto you, It is easier for a
camel to go through the eye of a needle,
than for a rich man
to enter into the kingdom of God.”

Beautiful poem that blessed me. Just a note. “except” should be “accept”.
