Deception Of Affluence Lyrics

You think you're mighty, think you're strong

But all your riches won't last long

Your castles are built on shifting sand

One day they'll fall, you'll understand

Oh wicked, you're so lucky now

God's wrath withheld, but tell me how

You sleep at night as you nurse your greed

Ignoring all the hearts that bleed

Oh, the day is coming, can't you see?

Your diamonds, gold, and jewelry

Will burn like wood in a fiery storm

When judgement comes to set the norm

But for the humble that's been oppressed

If they trust in the Lord, they'll find eternal rest

The mighty build their towers tall

But one day they will surely fall

Profiting from others' pain

Their greedy gain will all be in vain

Oh wicked, you're so lucky now

God's wrath withheld, but tell me how

You sleep at night as you nurse your greed

Ignoring all the hearts that bleed

Oh, the day is coming, can't you see?

Your diamonds, gold, and jewelry

Will burn like wood in a fiery storm

When judgement comes to set the norm

But for the humble that's been oppressed

If they trust in the Lord, they'll find eternal rest

So take this time, reflect, repent

Your days of wealth are nearly spent

A humble heart will find the way

To peace and love on Judgement Day

Oh, the day is coming, can't you see?

Your diamonds, gold, and jewelry

Will burn like wood in a fiery storm

When judgement comes to set the norm

But for the humble that's been oppressed

If they trust in the Lord, they'll find eternal rest

For the humble heart that's been oppressed

That day will bring eternal rest

Hold on tight, your victory's near

In Him you'll find no more fear

In Him you'll find no more fear
