There was a road,
a mountain road
in a winter canyon
leading to a cabin
where a little fire was burning.
And on that road
there were some cars,
some happy cars
filled with laughing girls
heading to that cabin
where a little fire was burning.
And on that mountain
it started to snow.
A heavy snow,
a blinding snow
on slushy roads
which now were really slippery.
And in those cars,
there were some leaders,
some worried leaders
and some quiet girls
who all were now not laughing.
And in those cars,
those worried leaders
saw other cars
slide off that road
where they now too were slipping.
So on that mountain,
those anxious leaders,
turned their sliding cars
with their frightened girls
away from that cabin
where the little fire was burning.
And down the mountain
those sliding cars
with their frightened girls
inched toward their homes
where worried parents were waiting.
But two of those cars,
those sliding cars
got stuck on the ice,
that black black ice,
where no one now was moving.
And near that road,
that slippery road,
there was a river,
in a rocky ravine
toward which those cars were veering.
Then in those cars,
a frightened girl,
a faithful girl
said to her crying friends,
"Now we must start praying."
So on that mountain,
good praying girls
asked their God in heaven,
to keep them safe
on this road where it was snowing.
When to the car
there came a man,
a kind-hearted man,
who called to the leaders,
"Is there a way I can be helping?"
And so that man,
he took those girls,
those frightened girls
into his van
and down the mountain went driving.
And more kind men,
in their big big trucks,
drove more crying girls
to meet their friends
who now were safely waiting.
So now at home
those grateful girls
with their thankful leaders
are once more safe,
and everyone now is laughing!
Thank you men,
you kind, kind men,
who stopped to help
some frightened girls
on a mountain road
where it was really snowing!
