1. While walking out one evening
2
Not knowing where to go
3
Just to pass the time away
4
Before we held our show
5
I heard the Bethel mission's band
6
Singing with all their might
7
I give my heart to Jesus
8
And left the show that night
9
Chorus
10
The day will soon be over
11
And digging will be done
12
And no more gems be gathered
13
So let us all press on
14
When Jesus comes to claim us
15
And says it is enough
16
The diamonds will be shinning
17
No longer in the rough

2. One day my precious comrade
20
You to were lost in sin
21
And others sought your rescue
22
And Jesus took you in
23
And when your tired and tempted
24
And scoffers can rebuff
25
Don't turn away in anger
26
This diamond in the rough
27
Chours

3. While reading through the Bible
29
Some wondrous sights I've seen
30
I read of Peter, James and John
31
By the sea of Galilee
32
And Jesus when he found them
33
He found them very tough
34
And they were precious diamonds
35
He gathered in the rough
36
Chours
