NO CHARGE |
while she was fixing supper and he handed her a piece paper he had been writing on and after wiping her hands on an apron She took it in her hands and read it and this is what it said:
And for making up my own bed this week $1 For going to the store $.50 And playing with little brother while you went shopping $.25 Taking out the trash $1 And for getting a good report card $5 And for raking the yard $2 Total owed $14.75
And a thousand memories flashed through her mind So she picked up pen and turned the paper over and this is what she wrote:
For the nights I sat up with you doctored you and prayed for you $ NO CHARGE For the time and tears and the costs through the years There is NO CHARGE When you add it all up the full cost of my love is $ NO CHARGE
And the worries ahead For the advice and the knowledge And the costs of your college $ NO CHARGE For the toys, school, and clothes And for wiping your nose There's NO CHARGE son When you add it all the full cost of my love is NO CHARGE
I think about the day that Jesus went out to Calvary and gave his life as a ransom for me When I think on the words "If Any Man be in Christ He's A New Creature" I like to think about the very minute that he shedded his blood My debt was paid in full And I want you to know today when you add it all up The full cost of Real Love is NO CHARGE
