'Til It Shines Songtext / Lyric

In a world of dimestore diamonds

We're all lookin' for a gem

You might even find a blossom

In a field of stones and stems

But inside there lies a treasure

Beneath the layers of honest grime

Could You buff this rusted halo

Of this angel out of time

'Till it shines

'Till it shines

Walkin' through the streets of Dallas

On a cold dark windy night

There's a beggar on the corner

Barely hangin' onto life

But if hope could be his blanket

And if faith could be his wine

He'd be new again tomorrow

I believe he still has time

'Till it shines

'Till it shines

Your love is my compass

Come show me the way

With You there's no drivin' blind

Help me to polish each moment

Each dream left behind

'Till it shines

In a world of dimestore diamonds

You know I found myself a gem

Love's a flower that can blossom

In a field of stones and stems

Deep inside You placed Your treasure

Now You can see it in my eyes

Could You buff this rusted halo

Only You would take the time

'Till it shines

'Till it shines
