I dreamt death came the other night And heaven's gate swung wide; With kindly grace an angel came To usher me inside. Yet there to my astonishment Stood folks I'd known on earth, Some I had judged as quite unfit Or of but little worth. Indignant words rose to my lips But never were set free; For every face showed stunned surprise NO ONE expected me! Anonymous From "A Book of Prayer" collected and compiled by Canon W.F.
