Oft I sing for my friends

When death's cold hand I see

When I reach my journey's end

Who will sing one song for me



  I wonder (I wonder) who

  Will sing (will sing) for me

  When I'm called to cross that silent sea

  Who will sing for me



When friends shall gather round

And look down on me

Will they turn and walk away

Or will they sing one song for me



So I'll sing til the end

Contented I will be

Assured that some friends

Will sing one song for me
