Nancy
playing and Bruce singing a voice-over duet with himself --- an 1854 Hymn --- "Work, For the Night is
Coming"
Although
not played in Churches anymore, this was Nancy's father's favorite hymn---
and so as a
little girl Nancy
would play this same Hymn for her Daddy every now and then, and always with her younger
sister, Joanne, looking on
But the
piano you now hear is over 100-years old--- a restored Jacob Doll (nee
"Dahl") upright built in 1905--- and now here at the end of Magnolia
Lane
And In
memory of Nancy's father, Arne Richardsson, this 1854 Hymn will
make an appearance in "Raisins and Almonds---A Civil War
Story"

Work, for the night is coming, Work
through the morning hours; Work while the dew is sparkling, Work
'mid springing flowers; Work when the day grows brighter, Work in
the glowing sun; Work, for the night is coming, When man's work is
done. |
