D 
When He cometh, when He cometh 
    A 
To take up his jewels 
 
All his jewels, precious jewels 
    A               D 
His Loved and His own. 
 
  
         G             D 
Like the stars of the morning 
   
His bright crown adorning  
          G               D 
They will shine in their beauty 
               A             D A D 
Bright jems for his crown. 
 
 
He will gather, He will gather 
The jems for His kingdom 
All the pure ones, all the bright ones 
His loved and His own. 
 
CHORUS     Instrumental: D Bm A D Bm G D 
 
Little children, little children 
O love their Redeemer 
All the jewels, precious jewels 
His loved and His own. 
 
CHORUS

Bright jems for his crown
