🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤
Precious memories, unseen angelsSent from somewhere to my soulHow they linger, ever near meAnd the sacred past unfoldsPrecious memories, how they lingerHow they ever flood my soulIn the stillness, of the midnightPrecious sacred scenes unfoldPrecious father, loving motherFly across the lonely yearsAnd old home scenes, of my childhoodIn fond memory appearsPrecious memories, how they lingerHow they ever flood my soulIn the stillness, of the midnightPrecious sacred scenes unfoldI remember, mother prayin’Father too, on bended kneeThe sun is sinkin’, shadows fallin’But their prayers still follow mePrecious memories, how they lingerHow they ever flood my soulIn the stillness, of the midnightPrecious sacred scenes unfoldPrecious memories fill my soul
