C                      F         C
Death is an angel sent down from above
                         D7         G7
Sent for the buds of the flowers we love
C                    F            C
Truly 'tis so for in heaven's own way
                             G7          C
Each soul is a flower in the Master's Bouquet
 
F                         C
Gathering flowers for the Master's Bouquet
                       D7         G7
Beautiful flowers that will never decay
C                  F           C
Gathered by angels and carried away
                        G7          C
Forever to bloom in the Master's Bouquet

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
Will bloom as a flower in the Master's Bouquet
 
Repeat #2
 
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 aye
Transplanted to bloom in the Master's Bouquet
