"Diamonds To Coal"


(CHORUS:)
Go ahead and do it, Lord
Change my diamonds to coal
Go ahead and do it, Lord
Bring me lower than low
You said a man might gain the world
And lose his own soul
So go ahead and do it, Lord
Change my diamonds to coal

I was thinking I had everything, thinking I was mighty
(Diamonds to coal, diamonds to coal)
But lately I've been feelin' all the ash and dust inside me
(Diamonds to coal, diamonds to coal)
And I can't ignore the Savior King
I can't avoid the corss
I'll need the help His Spirit brings
To count my gains as loss (so)
(Repeat chorus)

Thought my money was my worth, so my weath was my devotion
(Diamonds to coal, diamonds to coal)
My love for treasures on this earth is a chain that must be broken
(Diamonds to coal, diamonds to coal)
And I can't ignore the Savior King
I can't just walk away
I desire to be redeemed
That's why I'm here to pray
Go ahead and do it, Lord
Change my diamonds to coal

It's gonna take a miracle to turn it all around
(Inside out, upside down)
If I desire the sky, Lord, give me the ground
(Dead I'm alive, lost I'm found)
Living high, bring me low
To diamonds and coal

You said a man might gain the world and lose his own soul...

Go ahead and do it, Lord, change my diamonds to coal (repeat)
