Diamond

My father's father broke this ground

Daddy mined till we laid him down

Only God knows what they found beneath

Now here I stand in my own boots

Ax to grind and a point to prove

Tangled up in my own roots it seems

I got treasure up in Heaven

I got dirt all over me

I have only scratched the surface

Of the man I'm meant to be

I got something down inside of me

That only You can see

Help me dig a little deeper now

And set that diamond free

Why do I do the things I do

All the things that I don't want to

Act like I don't fear You at all

Hard head and a heart of stone

Older now but I haven't grown

Any riches that I have to show are small

I got treasure up in Heaven

I got dirt all over me

I have only scratched the surface

Of the man I'm meant to be

I got something down inside of me

That only You can see

Help me dig a little deeper now

And set that diamond free

Set it free

Set it free

Set it free

Set it free

Come down with your old flashlight

Underground black as night

No telling what you're gonna find in me

Set it free

Set it free

Set it free

Set it free

Set it free

I got treasure up in Heaven

Set it free

I got dirt all over me

Set it free

I got treasure up in Heaven

Set it free

Help me dig a little deeper now

And set that diamond free
