This Week in Catholic Liturgy: Death Be Not Proud

John Donne's sonnet Death Be Not Proud (http://www.bartleby.com/105/72.html) summarizes the Christian's attitude toward our last breath.  Although prophets, priests, and kings have gone to rest, the Christ of God journeyed through death to life eternal.  All who believe in Him and live accordingly are promised a like victory.
