            I used to worship money
            An idol built of greed
            My life revolved around the lump
            Amassed, just for my need
            I used to guard it carefully
            And watch it ebb and flow
            Was overjoyed to see it come
            But sad to see it go.

            Charity began at home
            My needs were paramount
            The poor and needy had to wait
            Their poverty didn't count
            But then I had a change of life
            And I asked Jesus in
            But kept my wallet firmly closed
            My wealth was not a sin.

            Bit by bit, my hardened heart
            Was softened by His love
            And off my greedy, grasping hand
            He took the chain mailed glove 
            Now I tithe and sow my seed
            Into the kingdom field
            A cheerful giver, I've become
            And heaven is my yield.
