The Precious Jewel |
| Way back in the hills when a boy I once wandered |
| There beneath the grave lies a girl that I love |
| She was called from this earth a jewel from heaven |
| More precious than diamonds more precious than gold |
| A jewel here on earth and a jewel in heaven |
| She will brighten the kingdom around God’s great throne |
| Maybe angels have peace God bless her in heaven |
| They’ve broken my heart and they’ve left me to roam |
| When she was sixteen we courted each other |
| She promised someday to become my sweet wife |
| I bought her the ring to wear on her finger |
| The angels they called her to heaven one night |
| A jewel here on earth… |
