It seemed only yesterday
When we were all so young
Going to school
And learning our sums
What wonderful times we had
But now we are getting older
And our backs are not so strong
And we hold onto the things of the past
Yes, what wonderful times they were.
But times come and go
And we see the times are moving
The ones that we once knew so well
They too are getting old and stooped
But we stop and chat
And think of times gone by
How sweet it is to stop and think
Of memories lost in time
Of memories lost in time.
How sweet those memories are
And the people that we once knew
People who once made a part of our lives
How precious they all have become
But precious is the thought
That there is more ahead
For the one who made us all
Wants to save us for his kingdom
And make with us new memories
And to live with Him forever.
