Diamonds in the Rough
Dear friends, more than likely you have heard
that we are all like diamonds in the rough.
For many reasons it's just that way;
It can make living at times kind of tough.

I have given my entire body to the Lord
to do with as He desires.
I know He will give me all I need
to stay away from Satan's fires.

I'm still kind of rough;
I have a lot of sharp edges to deal with now.
Thanks be to God!  I've made some progress -
by reading the Holy Bible is how.

You can be beautiful diamonds
shinning more each day.
I encourage you to be with God and
listen to every word He has to say.
