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 lose my soul.
What good is gold and silver too
if your hearts not good and true.
Sinner, hear me when I say,
bow 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 lose my soul.
For I'd rather be in a deep, dark grave
