Should you go first and I remain to walk the road alone?I'll live in memory's garden dear, with happy days we've knownIn spring I'll wait for roses red, when fades the lilacs blueAnd in early fall when brown leaves call, I'll catch a glimpse of youShould you go first and I remain for battles to be fought?Each thing you've touched along the way will be a hallowed spotI'll hear your voice, I'll see your smile, though blindly I may gropeThe memory of your helping hand will buoy me on with hopeBeyond the sunset, oh blissful morningWhen with our savior, heaven is begunEarth's toiling ended, oh glory dawningBeyond the sunset when day is doneShould you go first and I remain to finish with the scroll?No lessening shadows shall ever creep in to make this life seem drollWe've known so much of happiness, we've had our cup of joyAnd memory is one gift of God that death cannot destroyI want to know each step you take that I may walk the sameFor someday down that lonely road, you'll hear me call your nameShould you go first and I remain, one thing I'll have you doWalk slowly down that long long path, for soon I'll follow youIn that fair homeland, we'll know no partingBeyond the sunset forevermore
