ON THE HEIGHTS, by                    
First Line: The pine trees tall
Last Line: Your whole life through.
Subject(s): Marriage; Weddings; Husbands; Wives


The pine trees tall
Their boughs fling high
On hilltop heights
Against the sky.

The evening breeze
Blows soft and low.
The sun reflects
A golden glow.

Upon this pinnacle
We gather now
To celebrate
A marriage vow.

Young hearts and true
In happy union live.
Gladys and Gerald twain,
Each to the other give.

May your eyes look up
The heights to view,
And high hopes last
Your whole life through.
