Lyrics

People steal, they cheat and lie For wealth and what it will buy But don't they know on the Judgement Day That 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 If your heart's not pure 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
