People they cheat, they steal, and lie For wealth and what it will buy But don't they know on Judgement day That gold and silver it's gonna all melt away Well I would 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 Than deny my God and doom my soul What good is gold and silver too If your heart is not pure and true Sinner hear me when I say Fall down on your knees and pray Well I would 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 Than deny my God and doom my soul Than deny my God and doom my soul
