Brother Joseph K. Alston, Jr. Deacon Mose Davis, Sr. Deacon Lovett J. Jackson Deacon Willie A. Mace
WHEN I MUST LEAVE YOU When I must leave you for a little while, Please do not grieve and shed wild tears; And hug your sorrow to you through the years, But start our bravely with a gallant smile;
And for my sake and in my name Live and do all things the same. Feed not your loneliness on empty days, But fill each waking hour in useful ways; Reach out your hand in comfort and cheer, And I in turn will comfort you and hold you near. And never, never be afraid to die. For I am waiting for you in the sky!
Helen Steiner Rice
