PRECIOUS MEMORIES - Lonnie Combs & J. B. Wright
Chet Atkins & Emmylou Harris

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

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 my lonely years.
And old home scenes of my childhood,
In fond memory appear.

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

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