[Verse 1]
D
I went walking through a valley
A D
Thought I saw a piece of gold
G
So I put it in my pocket
D A7 D
but it turned out it was just a piece of coal
[Verse 2]
D
So I walked a million miles
A D
With that coal down by my side
G
All the rubbing from the journey
D A7 D
It took the coal and formed a diamond deep inside
[Chorus]
G D
So I’ll raise my hands sing hallelujah
G D
I’ll sing my praises to the Lord
G D
I don’t pretend to always understand him
A7 G
But he turned this heart to diamond from dusty coal
[Verse 3]
D
So I lay in joyful peace
A D
and I bathe in sunlit skies
G
when I meet a weary traveler
D A7 D
I remind them there’s a diamond deep inside
[Chorus] (2x)
G D
So I’ll raise my hands sing hallelujah
G D
I’ll sing my praises to the Lord
G D
I don’t pretend to always understand him
A7 G
But he turned this heart to diamond from dusty coal
[Outro]
A7 G
He turned this heart to diamond from dusty coal
A7 G
He can turn your heart to diamond from dusty coal.
