Hello all.
I'm fairly new to Sleuth and I thought I might share a little hobby of mine with you all. Here's something for that sad moment when the mysteries of the day are all done.

Thousands lay up gold within this house,
but no man made it.
Spears past counting guard this house,
but no man wards it.
What is it?

I have another riddle:

What rises to the highest hill, and can go down below? What precious thing can harm the snow? What is the lovely thing we want today, but long ago was for the poor? What is the thing that there will always be more...of?

Who makes it, has no need of it?
Who buys it, has no use for it?
Who uses it can neither see nor feel it?
What is it?

If you break me
I do not stop working,
If you touch me
I may be snared,
If you lose me
Nothing will matter.

Thank you....(I forgot the whole lines about God/Devil) I have lines to add to that riddle..
Seen the dark.
The poor have have it- but eat it, they die.
The rich need it.
It's more evil than Satan, it's more holy than God.
What is it?
