Verse 1
I see you the way that you could be,
All the love in your heart that longs to be set free;
Then I see dark walls that try to keep you bound, all around.

Like a precious jewel, deep within the mine,
You are the treasure I searched so hard to find.
Only I know the way you will shine one day.

Chorus 1
Every tear, every trial is to bring you liberty;
Every heartbreak is to set you free.
Every stroke of the chisel is a gift of My love for You,
My diamond in the rough.

Verse 2
So I take you into My loving hands,
Mould you and make you according to My plans.
Then I see tears flow when you do not understand My ways with you.

Oh, you come up shining, come up shining, shining oh so bright
And you'll glow, you'll glow within, reflecting My light.
Just as I promised you, the wrong will turn out right one day.

Chorus 2
Every tear, every trial is to bring you liberty;
Every heartbreak is to set you free.
Every stroke of the chisel is a gift of My love for You
My diamond in the rough.

Chorus 3
Every tear, every trial is to bring you liberty;
Every heartbreak is to set you free.
Every stroke of the chisel is a gift of My love for You,
My diamond in the rough.

Coda
I see you start to shine, start to shine your crystal light.
Like a diamond glowing, glowing in the night.
I see your crystal light.
