A Benediction from Mr. Burnell:
“And now may the Spirit,
that wonderful Missionary of the universe,
teach us to pray and to weep and to sing,
and to practice the presence of a power and wonder,
that we may deliver all these
who are caught in the captivity of their idols,
weeping by the rivers of their passion,
and their pain, and their captivity–
that they may lift up their voices and hearts,
and sing the Song of Life;
that we may come together in that wonderful microcosm,
which is the image and likeness of the great and Supreme One,
whose heart is the composer of all experience,
that we may not try to get ahead of our neighbor,
but rather keep behind him,
That our light may shine upon his way.
