 Hello, 
  
 I am after the singer and the title of a very old song. it is to play at a 
 funeral. 
  
 I am sure it is a male singer and the song title may be something like The 
 Book! 
  
 The Lyrics for the first verse (or at least one of the verses) are as 
 follows: 
 There's a book that my mother gave me, 
 that I read when the long day is through. 
 And the stories of old, 
 with leaves edged with gold, 
 guide me whatever I do.
