Daddy wore a happy smile,
When his bride came down the aisle,
In that little old cathedral in the paines.
When a baby filled their nest,
He was taken to be blessed
In that little old cathedral in the pines.
He grew up and joined the choir,
Where the organ played each day.
And he found his heart's desire,
In a girl who came to pray
Once again the wedding bells will softly peal,
And while you and I before the altar kneel
I will hold your hand in mine
As they did in Auld Lang Syne,
In that little old cathedral in the pines
