When God Comes And Gathers His Jewels

The ceremony was over
A lad stood alone in tears
For he had just said goodbye
To the one he had loved thru 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.

[CHORUS]
When God comes and gathers his jewels
All his treasures of diamonds and gold
You'll meet her up there in heaven so fair
When God comes and gathers his jewels.
[Substitute I'll meet her.....on last chorus]

Each night when the pale moon is shining
You can see this lad all alone
With his eyes lifted to'ard heaven
He's repeating these words he was told.

[CHORUS]

Cuando Viene Dios Y Junta Sus Joyas

La ceremonia se acabo
Un chico estaba solo en lagrimas
Porque el habia dicho adios
Al que habia amado atraves de los años

El se quedo solo con su cabeza abajo
Mientras su corazón estaría deb
Entonces el clerigo vino y tomo su mano
Y para el estas palabs dijo

Coro
Cuando dios viene y junta sus joyas
Todos sus tesoros de diamantes y oro
Lo conoceras en el cielo
Cuando dios junta sus joyas


Cada noche cuando la palida luna esta brillando
Tu puedes ver al chico todo solo
Con sus ojos levnatados al cielo
El esta repitiendo estas palabras que le dijeron
