Autumn Leaves From An Eastern PDF Download

Excerpt from Autumn Leaves From an Eastern Maple: A Collection of Songs and Verses for the Home Folks All nature on that morning woke rejoicing, For how could we poor mortals fail to see The emblem of pure lives writ out before us, So plainly it was meant for you and me; A robe of charity spread oe'r our failings, A blessing from His hands we all may know That, scarred by sin, unworthy all by nature, We may at last be cleansed as white as snow. I wonder if the children in the homeland, And they who now have grown to manhood's prime, Who year by year this wondrous magic ponder Have learned its lesson in the winter time. Here where so seldom come beautious snow-storms, A blessing follows as they come and go. 0 may we all soon learn full well the lesson 50 kindly given in the spotless snow. And when with earth the sky itself seems blending As 'round us eddy snow akes in the air, They'll be to us a type of joy unending, The bliss and purity we'll have up there.
