"In Loving Memory" Lyrics

(Cecil Harrelson - Linda Gail Lewis)

(Sang)
I stand here so solemn
With a blank look on my face
As you lay there dressed in pure white lace
With my head bowed low
Lord, the tears are streaming down
I can hear that old preacher man say.

In loving memory we gather
In loving memory on this sad day
In loving memory forever
Until we meet beyond the shining river.

(Spoken)
Pretty flowers I'll plant around you
And a white fence will surround you
On your marker words of love I'll enscribe
And though in death were apart
You know you'll always be in my heart
And it won't be long till I'll be by your side.

(Sang)
In loving memory we gather
In loving memory on this sad day
In loving memory forever
Until we meet beyond the shining river...
