HE wHIsTLED ON THE WAY

No deeds of fame enshrined his name,
No laurel wreath bay.
And yet he made earth happier;
He whistled the way,
When sorrow frowned and stars were drowned
In stormy skies and gray,
He saw the light stream through the night
He whistled on the way!
And even grief found sweet relief,
Hope shed brighter ray,
And hearts he knew not blessed him
For whstling the way!
And when from lfe's dark shadows
He passed into the day
They wrote above this line Of love.
He whisted on the way
