IHope

I hope that every lumberman What e'er his name may be, Will find the things for which he longs Upon his Redwood tree; I hope he'Il have no need to Pine Through all the year to come, Or mutter with a ruffled brow Expletives like "By Gum !"

I hope his cedar chest will be Filled full, unto the top; And that his lumber will not warP Or suffer from dry rot; I hope that customers will beat A pathway to his door, And that the sun of joy will shine Right through his oaken door.

I hope his faithful trucks will run lJpon a wide, smooth track, And when they take a big load out They'll bring Good Will right back; I hope that every day will be A banner day for him, And kindly deeds and kindly thoughts Will fill his heart with vim.

I hope that ev,ery lumberman Where ever he may be, Will see the golden star of hope Above his Christmas tree ; I hope the coming year will bring The things for which he prays, And Peace, Good Will and HaPPiness Make radiant all his davs.
