May The Good Lord Bless And Keep You

May the good Lord bless an' keep you,

Whether near or far away.

May you find that long awaited,

Golden day today . . .



May your troubles all be small ones,

And your fortune ten times ten,

May the good lord bless and keep you,

'Til we meet again . . .



May you walk with the sunlight shining,

An' a blue bird in every tree.

May there be silver lining,

Back of every cloud you see . . .



Fill your dreams with sweet tomorrows,

Never mind what might have been.

May the good Lord bless an' keep you,

'Till we meet again . . .



May the good Lord bless an' keep you,

"Till we meet again . . .
