Standard (EADGBE)

 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
