The Precious Jewel - Roy Acuff

Way back in the hills, when a boy, I once wandered

Buried deep in her grave lies a gal that I love

She was called from this earth, a jewel for heaven

More precious than diamonds more precious than gold.

A jewel here on earth a jewel in heaven

She'll brighten the kingdom around God's great throne

May the angels have peace God bless her in heaven

They've broken my heart and they've left me to roam

When a girl of sixteen, we courted each other

She promised someday to become my sweet wife

I bought her the ring to wear on her finger

But the angels they called her to heaven one night.

A jewel here on earth, a jewel up in heaven

She'll brighten the kingdom around God's great throne

May the angels have peace, God bless her in heaven

They've broken my heart and they left me to roam.

This world has it wealth, its' trials and troubles

Mother earth holds her treasures of diamonds and gold

But it can't hold the soul of one precious jewel

She's resting in peace with the heavenly fold.

May the angels have peace, God bless her in heaven

They've broken my heart and they left me to roam.
