When the curtains of night are pinned back by the stars
And the beautiful moon sweeps the sky
When the dew drops of heaven are kissing the rose
It is then that my memory flies
Upon the wings of some beautiful dove
To hasten the message of cheer
I’ll send you a kiss of affection and say
I’ll remember you, Love, in my prayers
When the angels of heaven are guarding the good
As God has ordained them to do
In answer to prayers that I offered to Him
I know there’s one waiting for you
Go where you will on land or on sea
I’ll share all your sorrows and cares
And at night when I kneel by my bedside to pray
I’ll remember you, Love, in my prayers
May the angels be with you and guard you through life
And guide you up Heaven’s bright stairs
And know that I love you wherever you roam
I’ll remember you, Love, in my prayers
