Diamond in the black coal
If you never look then you're never gonna know
You gotta look or you're never gonna know
A good heart is just like a
'Cause I've seen divine transformation
And like a jeweler with a lifeless gemstone
You gotta look or you're never gonna know
You never know what you might find
There in the darkness beneath the surface
Diamond in the black coal
Of time and space
That Jesus provides
Diamond in the black coal
You could be a diamond in the black coal

Well, it's so sad when something so radiant

Diamond in the black coal
It feels good when you strike gold
It's not always what you see

Diamond in the black coal
Through the eyes of grace
It feels good when you strike gold
Precious diamonds, brilliant shining

Hiding behind a face, yeah

Diamond in the black coal
Diamond in the black coal
You gotta look or you're never gonna know
He can make you shine
It feels good when you strike gold

Diamond in the black coal
Diamond in the black coal

Looking for a diamond in the black coal
Could be a treasure that you'd only see
Is kept from the light
Diamond in the black coal
