Thrift Shop Addict

Thift Shop Addict!

I sure do like a real good deal!
Something about a bargain holds such appeal!
I didn't need that something then, but I'll buy it now!
I just dig that saw blade with its painted on cow!

My house is a mess I'll have to agree,
People drop by to buy whatever they see!
I know my homes a junkyard's mess to the eye,
But, I'll fix that when I find nice shelves to buy!

I make no money, but I spend it well!
I can find a deal with age or musty smell!
My clothes come into style every three or four years.
Each piece has been stained with someone else's tears.

It seems like a Father once sent His Son who died,
Even for those who persecuted and denied.
He offered a gift to set us free,
At a cost that was paid for just you and me!

It's a bargain and a deal for sure you know!
Just accept His gift and let His light show.
Live for Him and let others see the way.
Help them live for Him in each new day!

Other bargains sit on shelves in dust.
Those of metal show signs of rust!
Books lay in stacks of disrepair.
They certainly show some lack of care!

Oh, my Father accept my life which belongs to You!
Forgive my sin I pray and hold me true,
To each day in mercy and grace,
One day to see the majesty of Your face!

Lord, I shed my sin before You now!
Upon bent knees in prayer I bow,
To pray Your will to share with others this night.
That they to may come to know Your glory and Your might!

There is a treasure to find this day,
That is offered to you in every way!
Please draw close and know His love!
Let Him live within you and praise above.


Here I sit in the small thrift store.
They've all gone out and locked the door!
The lights grow dim and the bargains few.
Yet, I know the best deal and choose a life for You!
