Where are you goips so fast, old man

Where are you goipg so fast, old man,
Where are you going SO fast?
There's valley to cross, and river to ford,
There's clasp of the hand and parting word
And tremulous sigh for the past, old man,
The beautiful vanished past.
The road has been rugged and rough, old mar
To your feet it's rugged and rough,
But you see dear being with gentle eyes,
Has shared in your labor and sacrifce;
Al! that has beea sunshine enough, old mGn,
| Tor you and me, sunshine enough.
How long since you've passed over the hill, old
man,

Were there beautiful valleys on t'other side?
We're there flowers and trees with their branches
wide,
3 To shu. out the heat of the sun, old man,
The heat of the fervid sun?
And how do you cross the waves, old man,
OF sorrow, the fearful waves?
Did you lay your dear treasures by, one by one,
With IN aching heart and Gods will be DONE"
g Under the wuyside dust, old man,
In the graves meath the wayside dust2
There III labor and sorrow for all, old man,
Alas there is sorrow for ALL
And you, peradvcnture, have had your share,
For eighty long winters have whitcned your hair'
And they've whisened your henrt as well. old
man,
Thank God, your heart as we'll.
You're now 1t the foot of the hill, old man,
At last at the foot Of the hill
The sun has gone down in golden glow.
And the heavenly city lies just below;
Go in through the pearly gate, old man,
The beautiful pearly gate.
