Miscellaneous
House of Gold
People steal,they cheat and lie.For wealth and what it will buy.Don't they know on the judgement day,that gold and silver will melt away.
(chorus)
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.
What good is gold and silver,too.If your heart's not good and true.Sinners hear me when I say,fall down on your knees and pray.
(chorus)
For 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.
