People steal, they cheat and lie For wealth and what it will buy Don't they know on the judgement day That their gold and silver will melt away I'd rather be in a deep, dark grave And know that my poor soul was saved Than to live in this world in a house of gold And deny my God and doom my soul What good is gold and silver, too When your heart's not good and true Sinner hear me when I say Fall down on your knees and pray
I'd rather be in a deep, dark grave And know that my poor soul was saved Than to live in this world in a house of gold And deny my God and doom my soul I'd rather be in a deep, dark grave And know that my poor soul was saved Than to live in this world in a house of gold And deny my God and doom my soul Than to live in this world in a house of gold And deny my God and doom my soul
