One day while I was traveling
I saw two chimneys by the road
standing there so silent
where a family once abode
Fire had consumed the house
The tin roof lay on the ground
where children once laughed and played
now there was not a sound
I thought about the family
that once called it home
did they still live close by
or are they dead and gone
did they know my Jesus
did they call Him Lord
Salvation is the gift of God
even poor folks can afford
