This is a would, full of trouble and strife
Brothers you know not the days of your life
If witheout warning, the trumpet should call
What would you give in exchange for your soul

What would you give, what would you give
What would you give in exchange for your soul
Oh, if today God called you away
What would you give in exchange for your soul

Never do wrong, but ever do right
If you desire to shine in God's sight
For if you miss that heavenly goal
What would you give in exchange for your soul

* Refrain

Satan awaits around every turn
Hoping in Hell your soul it will burn
If you should face the fire and coal
What would you give in exchange for your soul

* Refrain

Harken to God and you shall be saved
You will see heaven with gold it is paved
But if you sin and need one to console
What would you give in exchange for your soul

* Refrain
