DON’T COMPLAIN<\/p>\n

Now I may not know a lot,
\nBut of one thing I am sure,
\nGod loves His own Family,
\nSo we’re never totally poor.<\/p>\n

We may not always have a lot,
\nBut our basic needs are met,
\nUsing wisely what He gives,
\nWe should stay out of debt.<\/p>\n

If we let any greed step in,
\nComplain ’bout all He’s given,
\nHe may choose to take away,
\nThen it won’t be easy livin’.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
