Precious Memories

By Alan Jackson

Lyrics

Precious memories, unseen angels

Sent from somewhere to my soul

How they linger, ever near me

And the sacred past unfolds


Precious memories how they linger

How they ever flood my soul

In the stillness, of the midnight

Precious sacred scenes unfold


Precious father, loving mother

Fly across the lonely years

And old home scenes of my childhood

In fond memory appears


Precious memories how they linger

How they ever flood my soul

In the stillness, of the midnight

Precious sacred scenes unfold


I remember Mother praying

Father too, on bended knee

The sun is sinking, shadows falling

But their prayers still follow me


Precious memories how they linger

How they ever flood my soul

In the stillness, of the midnight

Precious sacred scenes unfold


Precious memories fill my soul
