          While walking out one evening, not knowing where to go,
                                                                                                                                          D  
          just to pass the time away before we held our show,
                  G                                                                              C                                                         G  
          I heard the Bethel mission's band singing with all their might,
                                                                                          D                                              G  
          I gave my heart to Jesus and left the show that night.
                        G                                                                 C                                      G  
          The day will soon be over and digging will be done,
                                                                                                                                                D  
          and no more gems be gathered, so let us all press on.
                          G                                                                         C                            G  
          When Jesus comes to claim us, and says it is enough,
                                                                                                  D                                    G  
          the diamonds will be shining no longer in the rough.
                             G                                                                                 C                                                    G  
          While reading through the Bible, some wondrous sights I've seen,
                                                                                                                                                  D  
          I read of Peter, James and John by the Sea of Galilee.
                        G                                                                         C                                      G  
          And Jesus when he found them, he found them very tough,
                                                                                                          D                                         G  
          for they were precious diamonds, he gathered in the rough.
