While walking out one evening |
|
Not knowing where to go |
|
Just to pass the time away |
|
Before we gave that show. |
|
I met a little mission band |
|
Singing with all its might |
|
I gave my heart to |
|
Jesus And left the show that night. |
|
The day will soon be over |
|
And the begging will be done |
|
No more gems be gathered |
|
So let us all press on. |
|
When Jesus comes to claim us |
|
And he says it is enough |
|
The diamonds will be shining |
|
No longer in the rough. |
|
While reading through the |
|
Bible Such wondrous sights |
|
I see I read of |
|
Peter, James and |
|
John By the |
|
Sea of Galilee. |
|
And Jesus when he found them |
|
Oh, he found them mighty tough |
|
And they were precious diamonds |
|
He gathered in the rough. |
|
The day will soon be over |
|
And the begging will be done |
|
No more gems be gathered |
|
So let us all press on. |
|
When Jesus comes to claim us |
|
And he says it is enough |
|
The diamonds will be shining |
|
No longer in the rough. |
