HOUSE BY THE SIDE OF THE
ROAD


HOUSE BY THE SIDE OF THE
ROAD
"There are hermit souls that live
withdrawn
In the place of their self-content;
There are souls like stars that dwell
apart
In a fellowless armament;
There are pioneer souls that blaze a
path
Where highways never ran,
Let. me live in house by the side Of
the road
And be a friend to man.
"Let me live in house by the side
of the road,
Where the race of men 90 by,
The men that are good and the men
that are bad,
AS good and as bad as /.
Then why should sit in the coro-
ner's seat,
Or ilurl the cynics ban?
Let me live in a house by the side of
the road
And be a friend to man.
.-,',--gy.
81 see from my house by the side of
the road,
By the side of the highway Of life,
The men that press onward with the
ardor of hope,
And the men that are faint with
the strife,
And turn not away from their smiles
and their tears,
Both parts of an infinite plan,
Let me live in a house by the side OF
the road
And be a friend to man
