TftE GRANDE RONDE RIVER
High up in the snow-capped mountains
Grande Ronde River takes its rise,
Running Nortwai'd in direction,
. Where the pine trees reach the skies.
Laughing, leaping ever bounding "
Singing, dancing swiftly flowing
.; Kvi' mnviticr nn ita wnv
Like a -silver ribbon winding:
Through the canyons cool and deep;
Jumping, leaping ever running
Like a flock of frightened sheep,
Until it reaches Grande Ronde Valley
On its journey to the Sea,
Where it pays its tribute ever ,
To the garden and the tree. ,
Some may fail to see the beauty -
In tViut cm nil or.,1 nay.n.., n.. '
And to know its utmost value '
- rew have ever, dared to dream. "
But when counting temporal blessings
As -we count them here below, .
What would be a greater blessing '
For Jehovah to bestow.
