If I had a penny...

If I had a penny,
for every selfish thought;
all the copper in the world
would overflow my pot.

If I had a nickel,
for every angry word;
I could buy a house,
whose size you'd think absurd.

If I had a dime,
for every bad decision;
I could rule an empire,
much larger than you'd envision.

If I had a buck,
for every lustful notion;
the ink upon the paper,
could fill the largest ocean.

If I had a Savior,

for every heinous sin;

His blood alone's sufficient,

to set me right with Him.
