No Charge (Remastered Version)

<p>My sister&#x27;s little boy came in the kitchen one evening<br/>While she was fixing supper<br/>And he handed her a piece paper he had been writing on<br/>And after wiping her hands on an apron<br/>She took it in her hands and read it<br/>And this is what it said:<br/><br/>For mowing the yard five dollars<br/>And for making up my own bed this week one dollar<br/>For going to the store fifty cents<br/>And playing with little brother while you went shopping twenty five cents<br/>Taking out the trash one dollar<br/>And for getting a good report card five dollars<br/>And for raking the yard two dollars<br/>Total owed one fourteen seventy five<br/>Well she looked at him standing there and expecting<br/>And a thousand memories flashed through her mind<br/>So she picked up pen and turned the paper over and this is what she wrote:<br/><br/>For the 9 months I carried you holding you inside me $ no charge<br/>For the nights I sat up with doctored you and prayed for you $ no charge<br/>For the time and tears and the costs through the years<br/>There is no charge<br/>When you add it all up the full cost of my love is $ no charge<br/><br/>For the nights filled with grey<br/>And the worries ahead<br/>For the advice and the knowledge<br/>And the costs of your college<br/>There is no charge<br/>For the toys, school, and clothes<br/>And for wiping your nose<br/>There&#x27;s no charge son<br/>When you add it all the full cost of my love is no charge<br/><br/>Well you know when I think about that<br/>I think about the day that jesus went out to calvary and gave his life as a ransom for me<br/>When I think on the words &quot;if any man be in christ he&#x27;s a new creature&quot;<br/>I like to think about the very minute that he shedded his blood<br/>My debt was paid in full<br/>And I want you to know today<br/>When you add it all up<br/>The full cost of real love is no charge
