People cheat
They steal and lie
For wealth and what
That wealth will buy
But don't they know
That on judgement day
Gold and silver
Will melt away
And I'd rather be
In a deep dark grave
And know that my
Poor soul was saved
And 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
So sinner hear me
When I say
Fall down on
Your knees and pray
And I'd rather be
In a deep dark grave
And know that my
Poor soul was saved
And to live in this world
In a house of gold
And deny my God
And doom my soul
Jesus died
There on the cross
So this world
Would not be lost
Sinner hear
Now what I say
For someday
You'll have to pay
And I'd rather be
In a deep dark grave
And know that my
Poor soul was saved
And to live in this world
In a house of gold
And deny my God
And doom my soul
