Famous quotes containing the word death:
“Because you live, O Christ,
the spirit bird of hope is freed for flying,

The stone has rolled away and death cannot imprison!
O sing this Easter Day, for Jesus Christ has risen!”
—Shirley Erena Murray (20th century)

you out, Death had the Mercy, you’re done with your century, done with God, done with the path thru it—”
