I MOWED SOME GRASS
(Bible Story Songs Matt vol 1 #21)

I mowed some grass for
my neighbor today.
I got me a dollar in
my pocket for pay.

My job's the dishes and
folding the clothes,
got plans for this money
that nobody knows.

Before you spend your
hard-earned dough,
there's something in the Bible
that you should know:
not only should you sing and pray,
but give to the Lord
on the very first day.
Oh, don't give as the hypocrites do
sounding a trumpet so
we'll all watch you.
But when you give your money,
don't let your left hand know
what your right hand
is doing as you secretly sow.
(And) He who see in secret,
He will repay, for
the Lord loves the cheerful ones
who give in this way.
