I feel the shadows now upon me And bright angels beckon me Before I go dear Christian brothers Won't you come and sing for me Sing those hymns we sang together That plain little church with the benches all worn How dear to my heart how precious the moment We stood shaking hands and singing our song My burden is heavy my way has grown weary I have traveled a road that is long And it would easy this poor heart dear brother If you come and sing one song Sing those hymns we sang together That plain little church with the benches all worn How dear to my heart how precious the moment We stood shaking hands and singing our song In my home beyond the dark river Your dear faces no more I will see Until we meet where there's no more sad parting Won't you come and sing for me Sing those hymns we sang together That plain little church with the benches all worn How dear to my heart how precious the moment We stood shaking hands and singing our song We stood shaking hands and singing our song
