Raymond A. Foss Poems

Prayers for all the saints
names unspoken for them
candles burning, on the altar,
lights burning within our hearts,
our spirits, their lives still here
within us, calling on their memory
even if their names remain unspoken
indebted to our forebears
starting long before Christ
back to the patriarchs, the saints
all those who faithfully followed God
throughout the ages

November 2, 2008
All Saints’ Day Sunday
Psalm 78:1-7
Hebrews 12:1-3 and sermon,
“Seizing the Future By Remembering the Past”,
by Reverend Huntley Halvorson
Suncook United Methodist Church
