Intro        Verse 1: When the ceremony was over   A lad stood alone in tears For he had just said goodbye To the one he had loved through the years Verse 2: He stood all alone with his head bowed down As though his heart would break The parson came over and took his hand And to him these words he did say When God comes and gathers his jewels   All his treasures of diamonds and gold You’ll meet her up there in heaven so fair When God comes and gathers his jewels Verse 2: Every night when the pale moon is shining   You can see this lad all alone With his eyes lifted up toward heaven He’s repeating these words he was told When God comes and gathers his jewels   All his treasures of diamonds and gold You’ll meet her up there in heaven so fair When God comes and gathers his jewels.

Cette chanson évoque le chagrin d'un jeune homme qui vient de faire ses adieux à son grand amour. Il se retrouve seul, accablé par la douleur, mais trouve du réconfort dans les paroles d'un pasteur qui lui assure qu'un jour ils se retrouveront au paradis. Chaque nuit, alors qu'il regarde la lune, il se remémore cette promesse, croyant fermement que l'amour perdure même au-delà de la vie terrestre. C'est une belle réflexion sur l'espoir et la foi en la réunion avec ceux que l'on aime.
