2 Nephi 24:32 -- "What shall then answer the messengers of the nations? That the Lord hath founded Zion, and the poor of his people shall trust in it."
Poverty's a gamble, and our wealth is but a dreaming;
vaults are full of nothing with the power of redeeming.
Mammon walks beside the Saints in Zion as reminders
that too much treasure acts upon a man as shabby blinders.
Our debt to God and Christ keeps us beholden evermore;
Bill Gates with all his gold could never even up the score.
I'll give away my sins, O Lord; but give away my wealth?
The law has taken it amain, with very little stealth . . .
