Testo No Charge - Shirley Caesar

Testo della canzone No Charge (Shirley Caesar), tratta dall'album Treasures

My sister's little boy came into the kitchen one evening

While she was fixing supper

And he handed her a piece of paper he'd been writing on

And after wiping her hands on an apron

She took it in her hands and she read it

And this is what it said

For mowing the yard, five dollars

For making up my own bed this week, one dollar

For going to the store, fifty cents

And playing with little brother while

You went shopping, twenty-five cents

Taking out the trash, one dollar

And for getting a good report card, five dollars

And for raking the yard, two dollars

Total owed, fourteen seventy-five

Well, she looked at him standing there and expecting

And a thousand memories flashed through her mind

So she picked up the pen and turned the paper over

And this is what she wrote

For the nine months I carried you

Growing inside me, no charge

For the nights I sat up with you

Doctored you, prayed for you, no charge

For the time and the tears

And the cost through the years, there is no charge

When you add it all up

The full cost of my love is no charge

For the nights filled with dread

And the worries ahead, no charge

For advice and the knowledge

And the cost of your college, no charge

For the toys, food and clothes

And for wiping your nose, there's no charge, son

When you add it all up

The full cost of my love is no charge

Well, you know when I think about that

I think about the day that Jesus went out on Calvary

And gave his life as a ransom for me

And I think on the words

"If any man be in Christ, he's a new creature"

I like to think that the very minute that he shedded his blood

My debt was paid in full

And I want you to know today

When you add it all up

The full cost of real love is no charge
