|
Precious memories, how they linger |
|
How they ever flood my soul |
|
In the stillness of the midnight |
|
Precious, sacred scenes unfold. |
|
Precious father, loving mother |
|
Fly across the lonely years |
|
And old home scenes of my childhood |
|
In fond memory appear. |
|
In the stillness of the midnight |
|
Echoes from the past I hear |
|
Old-time singing, gladness bringing |
|
From that lovely land somewhere. |
|
As I travel on life's pathway |
|
Know not what the years may hold |
|
As I ponder, hope grows fonder |
|
Precious memories flood my soul. |
