who do I look to for my riches?

God blesses those who are poor in spirit and realise their need for Him, for the Kingdom of Heaven is theirs. Mathew 5:3 (PM Version)

God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble. Psalm 46:1 (PM Version)

When you bow down before the Lord and admit your dependence on him, he will lift you up and give you honour. James 4:10 (PM Version)

.............................................

God is our refuge 
and he is our strength, always ready to
help when shadows length-

-en, when trouble looms
if I will bow down 
to the Lord it dooms
independent crowns.

When i put my self
under his clear rule
all of my old wealth
must be dropped as fool-

ish ness and thrown off.
His new creation
he will then lift up,
with great elation.

God blesses those who
are therefore poor in
spirit, for they threw
"own wealth" in the bin.

They admit their need
for their brand new self.
Old one was a seed -
husk was sent to hell!

God says very clear-
ly the second shot
(when Heaven comes near
to Earth) - theirs, the lot!
