I have known a love transcending human love Who sought with grace and dignity to find Her soul's directive beckoning above And rose to touch the feet of heaven-kind.
One who chose the earth for her domain To incarnate in human form and strive, Accepting sorrow and accepting pain That the hour of God in all may soon arrive.
I stood the vigil as her breathing slowed Repeating constantly the sacred Name Upward the life-force in her gently flowed The silent passing of an eternal flame.
