Lyrics for Justice Delivers Its Gift

Silver and gold, silver and gold Everyone wishes for it How do you measure its worth? Just by the pleasure it gives here on earth Oh, I'm getting old Oh, I'm getting old Everyone wishes for youth How have I wasted my life? Trusting the pleasure it gives here on earth Lord, come with fire Lord, come with fire Everyone's wasting their time Storing up treasure in vain Trusting the pleasure it gives here on earth Oh, I see the end Oh, I see the end Everyone's waiting for death How do you measure its worth? Justice delivers its gift here on earth Silver and gold, silver and gold Silver and gold, silver and gold
