NOTHING TO SELL

(By T. A. Hall, Milford, Del.)
Does it matter much, my brother,
If you don't or if you do,
Believe in one God and none other,
Just thought I'd ask of you.
Would you say it doesn't matter,
If you do or if you don't,
Human ideas just will scatter,
Yet, you'll believe it or you won't.
You should know the power of
choice,
Was given you when you were born
And you'll use it too, begosh,
(Be careful here I want to warn.)
God has said He sets before you,
Both the evil and the good,
(Deut. 30:19)
It's up to you what you will do,
AS to choosing which you should.
He sets before you life and death,
But says life is the one to choose
Even tho life's but a breath,
It's a life to save or lose.
Then do you believe there is none
other,
But one God and He is good,
And that He loves you too, my
brother,
If you don't I'm sure you should
You can believe and live forever
You can doubt and go to He'll,
Make up your mind this sid
| deaths river,
For I've not 60 a thing to sell.
