Precious Memories

[Verse 1] Precious memories, unseen angels Sent from somewhere to my soul How they linger, ever near me And the sacred scenes unfold [Chorus] Precious memories, how they linger How they ever flood my soul In the stillness of the midnight Precious, sacred scenes unfold [Verse 2] Precious father, loving mother Fly across the lonely years And old home scenes of my childhood In fond memory appear [Chorus] [Verse 3] In the stillness of the midnight Echoes from the past I hear Old-time singing, gladness bringing From that lovely land somewhere [Chorus] [Verse 4] I remember mother praying Father, too, on bended knee Sun is sinking, shadows falling But their prayers still follow me [Chorus]
