Far up in the glen deep and coolHow oft have I stopped to quench

my thirstWhen returning home from school

The winding path that leads to thecreek

That was spanned by a fallen tree-

Wasa favorite resort on SaturdayeveWhen from school and work I was

free-

Somehow the stars shine brighterthere

Than any Ive ever since seennightingale sang sweeter there

And bathed in the moons silverysheen

My mothers arm chair near thewindow stood

A table pulled close byits sideAnd on it was laid with reverent

careTho old family bible her Joy and

pride

In the long winter evenings whoacandles were lit

On a stool I sat at her feetAn sho told me the story of Elisha

of oldHow the ravens fed him with meat

Or how tho beggar sat at the richmans gate

And bogged for the crumbs thatfell

How tho rich man died in Godsgood time

And lifted up his eyes in hell

Tho years have been long slats I leftthe old home

Ive traveled many a weary mileBut tho picture of mother in the old

arm chairHas beon with me all tho while

And many a time when heart soroanti sick

While traveling on lifes wearyroad
