The folowing poem is a prayer from Bishop Charles Henry Brent that we would like to share with you in Loving Memory of Ada M. Rogers:
ON DYING
By Bishop Charles Henry Brent
A ship sails and I stand watching
till she fades on the horizon and
someone at my side says,
"She is gone!"
Gone where? Gone from my sight, that is all.
She is just as large now as when I last saw her.
Her diminished size and total loss from my
sight is in me, not in her.
And just at the moment when
someone at my side says, "She is gone,"
there are others who are watching her
coming over their horizon and other
voices take up a glad shout,
"There she comes!"
That is what dying is;
An horizon and just the limit of our sight.
Lift us up, Oh Lord, that we may see further.
