Gone From My Sight: The Dying Experience, a booklet by Barbara Karnes, includes the version of this poem from which I adapted the lyrics. Karnes credits the poem to Henry Van Dyke, but other sources indicate Beecher as the author.—Leslie Kostrich
Lyrics
She is gone, gone from our sight.
Other eyes watch her coming.
Voices take up the glad shout,
“Here she comes.”
That is dying.
