Some would gather money<\/p>\n
Along the path of life;<\/p>\n
Some would gather roses<\/p>\n
And rest from worldly strife.<\/p>\n
But I would gather children<\/p>\n
From among the thorns of sin;<\/p>\n
I would seek a golden curl<\/p>\n
And a freckled, toothless grin.<\/p>\n
For money cannot enter<\/p>\n
In that land of endless day,<\/p>\n
And the roses that are gathered<\/p>\n
Soon will wilt along the way.<\/p>\n
But, oh, the laughing children,<\/p>\n
As I cross the Sunset Sea;<\/p>\n
As the gates swing wide to Heaven,<\/p>\n
I can take them in with me!<\/p>\n

A child converted is an entire life converted.118<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
