John Prine - Diamonds in the Rough lyrics

Your rating:


1. While walking out one evening

Not knowing where to go

Just to pass the time away

Before we held our show

I heard the Bethel mission's band

Singing with all their might

I give my heart to Jesus

And left the show that night 



chorus



The day will soon be over

And digging will be done

And no more gems be gathered

So let us all press on

When Jesus comes to claim us

And says it is enough

The diamonds will be shinning

No longer in the rough

--------------------



2. One day my precious comrade

You to were lost in sin

And others sought your rescue

And Jesus took you in

And when your tired and tempted

And scoffers can rebuff

Don't turn away in anger

This diamond in the rough



chours



3. While reading through the Bible

Some wondrous sights i've seen

I read of Peter, James and John

By the sea of Galilee

And Jesus when he found them

He found them very tough

And they were precious diamonds

He gathered in the rough



chours
