When God Comes And Gathers His Jewels

D G INTRO G7 C The ceremony was over, D G A lad stood alone in tears. G7 C For he had just said goodbye, D G To the one he had loved through the years. G7 C He stood all alone with his head bowed down, D G As though his heart would break. G7 C Then the Parson came over and took his hand, D G And to him these words he did say: G7 C When God comes and gathers his jewels, D G All his treasures of diamonds and gold. G7 C You'll meet her up there up in heaven so fair, D G When God comes and gathers his jewels. G C D G G7 C D G INSTRUMENTAL G7 C Each night when the pale moon is shining, D G You can see this lad all alone. G7 C With his eyes lifted toward heaven, D G He's repeating these words he was told. G7 C When God comes and gathers his jewels, D G All his treasures of diamonds and gold. G7 C I'll meet you up there up in heaven so fair, D G When God comes and gathers his jewels.
