Where lengthened shadows ever creep; Are mountains, hills, majestic, grand, Carved out by the Almighty's Hand. Ten thousand landscapes merged in one. Reflect the glories of the sun; And colors in their brilliancy, Surpass the glow of sunset sea. Spellbound! One views the depths below, Where tides of grandeur ebb and flow; In reverence and silent awe, One worships God as ne'er before. Henry Felton Huse
