          Precious memories, unseen angels,
          Sent from somewhere to my soul;
          How they linger, ever near me,
          And the sacred past unfold.

            Chorus
            Precious memories, how they linger,
            How they ever flood my soul;
            In the still ness of the midnight,
            Precous, sacred scenes unfold.

          Precious father, loving mother,
          Fly across the lonely years;
          And old homescenes of my childhood,
          In fond memory appears.

            Chorus
            Precious memories, how they linger,
            How they ever flood my soul;
            In the still ness of the midnight,
            Precous, sacred scenes unfold.

          In the stillness of the midnight,
          Echoes from the past I hear;
          Old time singing, gladness bringing,
          From that lovely land somewhere.

            Chorus
            Precious memories, how they linger,
            How they ever flood my soul;
            In the still ness of the midnight,
            Precous, sacred scenes unfold.

          As I travel on life's pathway,
          Know not what the years may hold;
          As I ponder, hope grows fonder,
          Precious memories flood my soul.

            Chorus
            Precious memories, how they linger,
            How they ever flood my soul;
            In the still ness of the midnight,
            Precous, sacred scenes unfold.
