Dust to Dust Lyrics

What will you gain?
What will you earn?
What is your claim?
From dust we come
And dust we return

If I loved wealth
I'd find the root of evil
If I lust for power
I'd lose my soul
If I sought fame
I'd be a thief
Of all Your Honor
Honor, Glory, and Praise

Hollow and hopeless and cold
Is value in fame and in gold
The truest of treasures
Is to be found within His fold

Oh how lost I would be
If my faith unwound
And I lost The Lord
Oh how empty my soul
Would ever be found
If I gained the world

If you're seeking after treasures
Designed by human hands
You'll come and find to realize
Your soul it demands

If I loved wealth
I'd find the root of evil
If I lust for power
I'd lose my soul
If I sought fame
I'd be a thief
Of all Your Honor
Honor, Glory, and Praise

What is your wealth?
What is your fame?
What is your goal
If you gain the world
But lose your soul?

Oh how lost I would be
If my faith unwound
And I lost The Lord
Oh how empty my soul
Would ever be found
If I gained the world

The joy in knowing
I'm blood bought by The King
My truest treasure
Is I'll know my King
Know my King!

Hailing from Cedarville, OH, Wolves At The Gate has given a small, quiet town, big, loud rock. Although a combination of five dedicated friends, the line-up originally consisted of just Steve (vocals/guitar) and Ryan (drums) and a series of jam sessions in Steve's living room (since then drummer Dave Nester has joined the band). Before they knew it the scene was abuzz, and the guys were asked to jump on a few local shows. To create a full band Jeremy (guitar) and Ben (bass) were adopted into the WATG family, and soon after an additional vocalist, Colin, was added. Although the band loves to create and play music, they live to "bring Glory to God...we are compelled to love those who we come in contact with regardless of their own personal beliefs, and to share the joy of the salvation that Christ has brought in our lives." But don't you dare shrug them off as a cookie-cutter-Myspace-underOATH-knock-off band. Wolves At The Gate brings on a fresh, original style of music combining catchy rock riffs, tasteful screaming, and even church hymns - not to mention a powerful, Thrice-like vocalist. Besides consistently exceptional musical content, the band's creativity will keep you hooked.
