House of Gold

People still they cheat and lie
For wealth and what it will buy
But don't they know on judgment 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
Then to live in this world in a house of gold
And deny my God and do my soul

What good is gold and silver too
If your hearts not good and true
Consider it when I say
Fall down on your knees and pray

I'd rather be in a deep dark rain
And know that my poor soul was saved
Than to live in this world in a house of gold
And deny my God and do my soul
