While walking out, one evening,
|
Not knowing where to go
|
Just to pass the time away
|
Before we held our show
|
I heard a little mission band
|
Playing with all their might
|
I gave my soul to Jesus
|
And left the show that night
|
The day will soon be over
|
And evening will be done
|
No more gems to be gathered
|
So let us all press on
|
When Jesus comes to claim us
|
And says it is enough
|
The diamonds will be shining
|
No longer in the rough
|
|
