HOW MUCH ARE YOU WORTH?
Supposing, today were your last day OF
earth
The last mile of the journey you've trod--
After all your struggles, how much ar,
you worth?
How much can you take home to God?
silver and gold,
Fol-. tomorrow you leave these behind, :.
And all that is yours to have and Il
hold.
Are the blessings you've given mankind.
Just what have you done as you journeyet
That was really and truly worth while
Do you feel your good deeds would offse
the wrong,
Could you look o'er your life with a smile
We are only supposing-hut II 1t were real
And you invoiced your deeds since you
And ,yog figured the profts you've mad
How much are you really worth?
