--.qs - Fifi A Kari TO THE HUDSON Past the smoke and noise of cities that are spread along its banks A stretch of gray and silver flows and mingles with the seas. And above the dark hills rolling 'gainst the skyline to the W'est There's a silhouette of gaunt and leafless trees. Far away beyond the hilltops where the skyline meets the earth Colors of autumn sunset slowly die And as the darkness deepens on the shore line at its edge The twinkling lights to stars above reply. And if, sometimes in life, a roadway winding Towards destiny, thru long and endless years, VVith smoke and noise our eyes are often blinded Pray God the sting be washed away by tears. So when the glory of our lives is fading, And darkness slowly deepensvin our hearts A light within our souls shall be awakened And answer to the call that Comes from God. F. Nlount ,Z-l. I ld
