prettiest flower there

i came into the parlor

a precious soul had gone home

i grieved with the family

who'd been left all alone

the tears were freely flowing

their loss so hard to bear

it was then i looked around me

she was the prettiest flower there

angels stood at attention

when she was called away

for she'd held the hand of jesus every day

heaven's choir played her anthem

as they welcomed one so rare

heaven knows she is

the prettiest flower there

i placed a rose by her side

it seemed i saw her smile

i remembered how she blessed all those

she met o'er the miles

eternally she's resting now

in a garden so fair

and when heaven looks upon her

it sees the prettiest flower there

angels stood at attention

when she was called away

for she'd held the hand of jesus every day

heaven's choir played her anthem

as they welcomed one so rare

heaven knows she is the

prettiest flower there

heaven's choir played her anthem

as they welcomed one so rare

heaven knows she is

the prettiest flower there

heaven knows she is the

prettiest flower there
