Biography by Hans J. Wollstein: A stage ingenue of some importance who had appeared in the original Broadway version of Ben Hur, brunette Louise Huff became a star with the pioneer Lubin Mfg. Company of Philadelphia. In scores of one- and two-reel melodramas and Westerns from the very early 1910s, Huff was especially popular in tandem with Edgar Jones, whom she married. Together, they relocated to California in the mid-1910s but her career was already on the wane and she retired in 1922. Her sister, Justina Huff, was also a Lubin star.
Picture yourself on the Mount called Olivet
You're standin' with Jesus ... a marvelous time
Then while you talk He begins to rise slowly -- and gives you His final goodbyes
Aeroplane flyers were seldomly seen down in Jerusalem then
Look for the Lord with the sun in your eyes and He's gone!
Lookee, in the sky, He's flyin'! REPEAT
Following that there appear on the mountain a couple of angels in garments so white
"Ye men of Galilee," they say, "please tell us how come you still stare at the sky?
Soon He'll be back, He'll appear as before where He was taken away
When He comes back, He'll descend through the clouds." Then they're gone!
Lookee, in the sky, you'll find Him! REPEAT
Scripture foretells of a day we'll be taken
"The Rapture," they call it -- it's looking like time
Suddenly trumpets declare His return while the church will arise to go with Christ
