Happiness

 By Walt Perryman

I once believed that Happiness could be bought,
But while living my life, I’ve learned that it cannot.

I once had money, big houses and all that stuff,
But no matter how much I had, it wasn’t enough!

However, Happiness is not just handed out free,
But once you commit your life to God it will be!

Sure, you’ll still have hard times like everyone does,
But with God by your side, it’ll be easier than it was.

So instead of checking your bank account today,
You might want to check with God when you pray.
