Precious mem'ries, unseen angels

Sent from somewhere to my soul

How they linger, ever near me

As the sacred past unfolds.



Precious father, loving mother

Fly across the lonely years

Through old home scenes of my childhood

With fond memories appear.



Precious mem'ries how they linger

How they ever flood my soul

In the stillness of the midnight

Precious, sacred scenes unfold.



--- Instrumental ---



As I travel on life's pathway

I know not what life shall hold

And as I wander, hope grows fonder

Precious mem'ries floods my soul.



Precious mem'ries how they linger

How they ever flood my soul

In the stillness of the midnight

Precious, sacred scenes unfold.



Precious, sacred scenes unfold...
