Out of this life I shall never take

Things of silver and gold I make

All that I cherish and hoard away

After I leave, on this earth must stay

Tho I have toiled for a painting rare

To hang on the wall, I must leave it there

Tho' I call it mine, and boast its worth

I must give it up when I leave this earth

All that I gather, and all that I keep

I must leave behind when I fall asleep

And I often wonder what I shall own

In that other life, when I pass alone

What shall they find, what shall they see,

in the soul that answers the call for me?

Shall the Great Judge learn when my task is through

That my spirit has gathered some riches too?

Or shall at last it be mine to find

That all I'd worked for I'd left behind.
