Hank Williams - When God Comes & Gathers His Jewels lyrics

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