A House Of Gold

I'd rather be in a deep, dark grave

And know that my first soul was saved

Than to live in this world in a house of gold

And deny my God and doom my soul

Some people steal, they cheat and lie

For wealth and what it will buy

Don't they know on a judgement day

Gold and silver will melt away?

What good is gold and silver, too?

If your hearts not good and true

Oh 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 first soul was saved

And to live in this world in a house of gold

And deny my God and doom my soul
