"Precious Memories" lyrics

Precious Memories

Precious memories
Unseen angels
Sent from somewhere to my soul
How they linger
Ever near me
And the sacred past unfolds

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 appears

Precious memories
How they linger
How they ever flood my soul
In the stillness
Of the midnight
Precious sacred scenes unfold

I remember
Mother praying
Father too on bended knee
The sun is sinking
Shadows falling
But their prayers still follow me

Precious memories
How they linger
How they ever flood my soul
In the stillness
Of the midnight
Precious sacred scenes unfold
Precious memories fill my soul
