1. Now you can buy insurance plans to pay you when you're ill
And if your earthly home should burn a new one you could build
Insurance on your earthly wealth, your silver and your gold
But read God's book, don't overlook, insurance beyond the grave.

Cho. Insured beyond the grave protection on your soul
When this old house you're living in the hand of death will close
Your policy will pay your friends and cover you with clay
What have you got if you are not insured beyond the grave?

2. The precious Savior stands and waits and knocks upon your door
He'll enter in and set you free from sin for evermore
The only price you'll have to pay is humble words in prayer
Give up this world and all it's worth and be a millionaire

Thank you.
I heard a lady read it last night at church and want to find the music and maybe sing it myself.
God Bless

Verse 1 ,last 4 words, should read, insurance on your soul. In the chorus , third line should read, your policy may pay your rent , not friends. And in the chorus, 2nd line the last word should be hold, not close. Thanks, love this old song, first sang in the late 50's
