Gathering Flowers For The Master's Bouquet

Death is an angel sent down from above sent for the buds 
and the flowers we love
Truly 'tis so for in heaven's own way each soul is a flower
 in the Master's bouquet
Gathering flowers for the Master's bouquet beautiful 
flowers that will never decay
Gathered by angels and carried away forever to bloom in the
 Master's bouquet

[ mandolin ]

Loved ones are passing each day and each hour passing away 
as the life of a flower
But every bud and each blossom some day
Gathering flowers...

[ guitar ]

Let us be faithful till life's work is done blooming with 
love till the reaper shall come
Then we'll be gathered together for age
Transplanted to bloom in the Master's bouquet
Gathering flowers...
