1
Way back in the hills, when a boy, I once wandered
2
Where deep in the grave lies the one that I love
3
She was called from this earth, a jewel for heaven
4
More precious than diamonds more precious than gold.
5
A jewel here on earth, a jewel in heaven
6
She'll brighten the kingdom around God's great throne
7
May the angels have peace, God bless her in heaven
8
They've broken my heart and they left me to roam.
9

10
When a girl of sixteen, we courted each other
11
She promised someday to become my sweet wife
12
I bought her the ring to wear on her finger
13
But the angels they called her to heaven one night.
14
A jewel here on earth, a jewel in heaven
15
She'll brighten the kingdom around God's great throne
16
May the angels have peace, God bless her in heaven
17
They've broken my heart and they left me to roam...
