And recall the time of boating, When we sure had "right of way Along the winding Susquehanna I Slow but sure our boats did glide; Down the valley, 'long the mountains I Known for their beauty far and wide. ' How our hearts rebound with pleasure As we view the sam old "route": ! Brings to memory friends and boats I And the driver's call or shout. "Boat ahead!" And if we hurry Along this level we ran pass. Make the lock and gain a-headw'av; Steering straight, we won at last. Thus we lived oft night and dav In the times now past and gone Asl we•braved rain, storm or sunshine, Nipjnt s dark shadows, we lonped for morn. Eut listen! Let us stop and think; Before this glad day brings a close Many, many of our friends May be drifting, drifting,—no one knows. What a grand and useful lesson Each and all of us ran bring To our homes, our friends and loved ones. Grand! If we all can Join and sing "Throw out the lifeline, across the dark wave: There is a brother whom some one can save. Somebodv's brother—Oh. who then will dare To throw out the lifeline, his peril to share?" Every look, kind word or action As our boat glides down life's stream. Sure will tell when all is ended Let it not "be all a dream " On the distant shores our eantaln Beckons us with loving hand Let us steer our boat, life's vovage and in safety we will land ' For the bugle soon mav sound Far across the rolling deep Calling each one into port Peaceful be our dreamless sleep There our loved ones now are waiting Watching from tlmt shining shore' Listening for the voice of dear ones And the sound of our fair boat's "oar. Here this day we meet In gladness Near the Susquehanna's shore "Some day" as we steer our "life boat , Meet in Heaven, to part no more.
