[00:24.21]5 My Grandfather’s Clock
[00:24.87]My grandfather's clock was to large for the shelf
[00:31.08]So it stood ninety years on the floor
[00:37.38]It was taller by half than the old man himself
[00:43.56]Though it weighed not a pennyweight more
[00:49.80]It was bought on the morn of the day that he was born
[00:56.13]And was always his treasure and pride
[01:02.61]But it stopped short, never to go again, when the old man died
[01:14.73]Ninety years without slumbering, tick, tock, tick, tock
[01:21.51]His life seconds numbering tick, tock, tick, tock
[01:27.66]It stopped short, Never to go again, when the old man died
[01:51.87]In watching its pendulum swing to and fro
[01:57.93]Many hours had he spent while a boy
[02:04.11]And in childhood and manhood the clock seemed to know
[02:10.35]And to share both his grief and his joy
[02:16.38]For it struck twenty-four when he entered the door
[02:22.77]With a blooming and beautiful bride
[02:29.16]But it stopped short, Never to go again when the old man died
[03:09.27]It rang an alarm in the dead of the night
[03:15.54]An alarm that for years had been dumb
[03:21.66]And we know that his spirit was pluming its flight
[03:27.78]That his hour of departure had come
[03:33.78]Still the clock kept the time with a soft muffled chime
[03:40.23]As we silently stood by his side
[03:46.62]But it stopped short, never to go again, when the old man died
[03:58.71]Ninety years without slumbering, tick, tock, tick, tock
[04:05.49]His life seconds numbering tick, tock, tick, tock
[04:11.61]It stopped short, Never to go again, when the old man died
[04:23.79]It stopped short, Never to go again, when the old man died
