Full Barns

A new house, a new car
wealth in the bank
ostentatious living
letting it all hand out

Full barns of the rich man
rewards here on earth
but what of the ledger in heaven
the book of his life

Full barns but an empty heart
thinking of himself
the indictment of the rich man
an accounting bound for hell
