Lyrics

"Diamond in the Rough"
By Kindra In Christ Contemporary Christian Singer and Songwriter

Verse 1
Lord, You see my potential
When I see nothing special
When I feel I am dirty
Through Jesus’ blood, You count me worthy
When I fear You’ve had enough
That I am just too hard to love
Then in Your grace, You look beyond
To see a diamond in the rough

Chorus
A diamond in the rough
To polish with Your love
You see a hidden gem
Who will shine once again
Though tarnished by my sin
You see the jewel that lies within
For You, Lord, in Your wisdom
See a diamond in the rough

Verse 2
Lord, You think I’m important
When I don’t think I’m worth it
You look beyond the surface
To see my inner person
All my battles and my wars
Have left such ugly scars
Yet, Lord, despite all I have done
You see a diamond in the rough

Chorus
A diamond in the rough
To polish with Your love
You see a hidden gem
Who will shine once again
Though tarnished by my sin
You see the jewel that lies within
For You, Lord, in Your wisdom
See a diamond in the rough

Bridge
When all I see are flaws
You focus not on who I am – but on
Who I’ll become
Lord, You look beyond the dross
To see a diamond in the rough

Final Chorus
A diamond in the rough
To polish with Your love
You see a hidden gem
Who will shine once again
One day, Lord, I will see
Myself the way I’m meant to be
Until then, Lord, help me to trust
I am Your diamond in the rough
