"Our Father Edson J. Wood has completed his earthly toils. The brittle thread which bound him to Earth has been severed and the liberated spirit has winged its' flight to the unknown world. The silver cord is loosed; the golden bowl is broken;the pitcher is broken at the fountain; and the wheel is broken at the cistern. The dust has returned to the Earth as it was, and the Spirit has returned to GOD who gave it." So Mote It Be. Eccl. Chp. 12 Psalm 1; Psalm of the Holy Spirit Well Done Father Edson. Be thou at Peace. In The Garden He speaks, and the sound of His voice Is so sweet the birds hush their singing, And the melody that He gave to me, Within my heart is ringing. And He walks with me, And He talks with me. And He tells me I am His own; And the joy we share as we tarry there, None other has ever known. C. Austin Miles |
