To the follower of Christ,
Jesus' words offer such comfort.
To the selfish materialist however,
They're disturbing, and actually
Impossible to obey --
Until priorities are straightened out.
Take Matthew 6:24 for instance
Where our Master warns:
"Ye cannot serve God and mammon."
Coming into right relation
To the Christian requirement
To serve God, not selfish interests,
Brings the supply one needs.
And it even ensures enough
Left over to help others.
Best of all, it replaces fear
With joy and trust in God's dear love --
The greatest treasure there is.
