For Sr. Mary Corita Clarke RDC 1932-2020
Woman of faith and grace
Strong, humble, mild,
Conquering the gloom of death
Ascending, home at last
Quietly suffering
Still offering
A way, a path ahead
Steadfast no challenge too great
Understanding, delving
Asking, seeking, mysteries
Answers deep.
Steeped in present knowledge
Veil to temple rent aside
As with beloved now abide.
Corita, coronet accept
Reward for life well-kept.
