Story behind the song
We strive to get rich but what value is riches if you lose your soul to gain it.
Lyrics
WHAT SHALL IT PROFIT A MAN
VERSE 1
What shall it profit a man, if he shall gain
All the world's riches, and great worldly fame
But lose his soul, for eternity
And suffer forever, in infinity
CHORUS
(So) What would he gain, but eternal pain
Where no one would, recognize his name
No one to praise, his earthly fame
Just utter darkness, and searing flame
VERSE 2
What shall it profit a man, if he should rise
In worldly success, through moral demise
Ignoring God, His salvation plan
In outer darkness he will surely stand
RC
BRIDGE
Earthly riches, can't buy you peace
And earthly fame, can't make pain cease
Earthly pleasure, for a short span
Can not measure, hell's pain for man. (so)
