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 jesus said come on to me i ll break sin s chains and set you free i ll carry you to a home on high where you ll never never die 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 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 what good is gold and silver too if your heart s not good and true sinner hear me when i say fall down on your knees and pray
