Words by Bob Hartman
Based on 1 Corinthians 1:21-25, Revelation 21:18

Some say this life I live is only foolishness
No waiting pot of gold in the faith that I possess
But the treasures of this life will slowly turn to dust And this fool will find his gold in the Savior that I trust

(Chorus)
Fool's gold It's waiting in a crown Fool's gold
In a city coming downI'll leave the gold I can't afford for
For the higher prize I'm pressing toward I'll preach the "foolish" cross of Christ
And wait for my reward Fool's gold

The wisdom of the cross is easy to receive
But only foolishness to them that don't believe
They may say that I'm a fool for the cross that I proclaim
But the gold that I must seek won't be found in earthly things

When the crowns of gold are laid before His feet
Then the worthy Lamb of God is a treasure we will keep
Some may call me foolish, some may call me odd
But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
than a fool in the eye of God
