Grandkids, cell phone and pictures out
There's more that I'd be lost without .
As I ran through that burning doo r
That voice inside I just ignore
Hear this message from your mind
You don't see what you left behind
Then I run back and look around
Computer-iPads what I found
Are these the things that I must get
What I believe I've not found yet
Stop and think before you leap
The most essential thing to keep
This place looks like some bar room brawls
I see my Precious Moment Dolls
Is this what I've been thinking of
These special dolls were gifts of love
Important things you have forgot
God's greatest gifts cannot be bought
I need to look once more to see
My Bible means so much to me
The pictures that my grandkids drew
It's not like I can get brand new
There's something you must now remember
You too could be a smoldering ember
Ran out to take a deep long breath
Going back could mean the kiss of death
So now that I have time to think
Material items weren't the link
Hear this message loud and clear
What you're to find is not in here
If I had stopped to rest a bit
The real message would then have hit
That's what that voice was trying to say
To use my head and stay away
You heard the message from your mind
Your common sense had just gone blind
Your Sense of Values; Your Greatest Find
