Full Lyrics
REFRAIN
Dust, I am, dust, I shall return
This world is a journey, a journey to heaven
VERSE 1
The body is made from dust, so there shall it return
The soul is made in the likeness of God and to God shall it return
And what does a man benefits if he gains the whole world and loose his soul
The fool has built his house on sand while the wise on solid rock
VERSE 2
For it is appointed once for man to live after which he face God's judgement
The young, the old, the rich and the poor, the beautiful and the ugly sooner or later all flesh shall decay
But happy the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of heaven
And happy the man who waits fervently for the lord his reward is nigh
VERSE 3
The flesh shall someday become a food for the moths and worms
The soul shall return for its reward of rest or regret when the time comes
But happy the man who makes for himself treasures in heaven where it can't be stolen
Oh let the man with ears take heed for tomorrow may be too late
