Our Mortal Standard Lyrics

Our Mortal Standard lyrics

eyes fixed on goals of wealth and riches 

we reach out to recieve but never give 

in debt for our wants and neglect our needs 

silver and gold the measure of a man 

possessions posses 

owned by ownership indebted distress 

enter the gauntlet of dreams 

acquire happiness by any means 

content is the man that knows 

his worth relies in Christ 

for Godliness with contentment is great gain 

for we brought nothing into this world 

and we take nothing out 

for the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil 

some people eager for money 

wandered from their faith 

and pierced themselves with many griefs.
