HOW MUCH ARE YOU WORTH

                   I

THERE ONCE LIVED A MAN WHO WORKED ALL HIS LIFE
TO BUILD THE GREAT EMPIRE HE HELD.
THEN ONE NIGHT ON HIS DEATH BED HE LAY
AND THESE WERE THE LAST WORDS HE SAID.

              1ST CHORUS

WHAT GOOD IS MY GREAT REPUTATION
OF THE TREASURES I HAVE ON THIS EARTH.
FOR TONIGHT GOD'S DEATH ANGEL IS CALLING.
AND I WONDER HOW MUCH AM I WORTH.

                   II

SOME PEOPLE I KNOW LEFT THEIR FAMILIES AND HOMES
IN SEARCH OF THEIR SILVER AND GOLD.
BUT SOME DAY THEY'LL FIND ALL THE GOLD IN THE WORLD
WILL NOT BUY ONE HEARTBEAT OF LOVE.

               2ND CHORUS

WHAT GOOD IS YOUR FAME AND YOUR FORTUNE
OF THE TREASURES YOU HAVE ON THIS EARTH.
WHEN YOU'RE GROWING OLD AND YOU'RE LONELY
THEN I WONDER HOW MUCH ARE YOU WORTH.

                    III

NOW FRIENDS DON'T BE LURED BY TEMPTATION IN SIN
THE WAGES OF SIN ARE TOO HIGH.
WHEN YOUR TIME HAS COME AND THEY'RE DIGGING YOUR GRAVE
NOT ONE THING ON EARTH CAN YOU BUY.

               3RD CHORUS

WHAT GOOD IS YOUR GREAT REPUTATION
OF THE TREASURES YOU HAVE ON THIS EARTH.
THEY WON'T BUY YOU A PLACE UP IN HEAVEN
THEN I WONDER HOW MUCH ARE YOU WORTH.
