Is all we need
To be content
Oh Gods word heed
Don't our pleasures
A moment last
How hard it is
For man to fast
But food and clothing
With contentments peace
Is better by far
Than riches increase
For those who be rich
Can be very poor
Always sad
No peace for sure
Give me
A simple roof
Over my head
With Gods truth
To read all day
Of his love
Give me riches
From above
Why do men
Seek wealth
And pay for it
With their health
Or their family
They give away
For mammoths lure
That comes each day
Why do we need
Fast cars
Over spending
At drunken bars
A huge house
With many rooms
Poverty written
On our tombs
We can only sit
In one chair at a time
And one bed
Oh it's a crime
To take more
Than we need
Still for the rich
God did bleed
