[00:03.03]While walking out one evening
[00:07.11]Not knowing where to go
[00:11.34]Just to pass the time away
[00:14.91]Before we held our show
[00:18.72]I heard the bethel the nation stand
[00:23.01]Singing with all their might
[00:26.43]I give my heart to jesus
[00:29.85]And left the show that night
[00:34.32]The day will soon be over and digging will be done
[00:42.12]And no more gems be gathered so let us all press on
[00:50.04]When jesus comes to claim us and says it is enough
[00:58.02]The diamonds will be shining no longer in the rough
[01:06.84]One day my precious comrade
[01:10.74]You too were lost in sin
[01:14.67]And others sought your rescue
[01:18.57]And jesus took you in
[01:22.41]And when you're tired and tempted
[01:26.64]And scoffers can rebuff
[01:30.15]Don't turn away in anger
[01:33.93]This diamond in the rough
[01:37.89]The day will soon be over and digging will be done
[01:45.66]And no more gems be gathered so let us all press on
[01:53.49]When jesus comes to claim us and says it is enough
[02:01.35]The diamonds will be shining no longer in the rough
[02:10.02]While reading through the bible
[02:13.95]Some wondrous sights I see
[02:17.76]I read of peter james and john
[02:21.60]On the sea of galilee
[02:25.38]And jesus when he found them
[02:29.28]He bound them very tough
[02:33.00]And they were precious diamonds
[02:36.90]He gathered in the rough
[02:40.89]The day will soon be over and digging will be done
[02:48.39]And no more gems be gathered so let us all press on
[02:56.16]When jesus comes to claim us and says it is enough
[03:04.05]The diamonds will be shining no longer in the rough
