in loving memories

i stand here so solemn with a blank look on my face

as you lay there dressed in white lace

with my head bowed ow lord the tears are streaming down

i can hear that old preacher man say

in loving memories we gather

in loving memories on this sad day

in loving memories forever

until we meet beyond the shining river

pretty flowers i'll plant around you

and a white fence will surround you

and on your marker words of love i'll inscribe

and though in death we're apart

you know you'll always be in my heart

and it won't be long till i'll be by your side

in loving memories we gather

in loving memories on this sad day

in loving memories forever

until we meet beyond the shining river
