House of Gold

People steal, they cheat and lie

For wealth and what it will buy

Don't they know on judgment day

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 soulWhat good is gold and silver, too?

In your hearts not good and true

Sinner, hear me when I say

Fall down on your knees and prayI'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
