''Flight of Years'' is a discourse delivered by George Washington Burnap in the First Independent Church of Baltimore in 1855. The book is a reflection on the passage of time and the inevitability of change. Burnap uses the metaphor of a bird flying through the sky to illustrate the fleeting nature of life and the importance of making the most of the time we have. He also discusses the role of religion in helping individuals find meaning and purpose in their lives. The book is a thoughtful exploration of the human experience and the search for meaning in a world that is constantly changing.Also Contains, A Discourse Delivered On The Sunday Succeeding The Funeral Of Robert Thaxter By Nathaniel Hall; The Christian Scholar By William Newell; Tribute To The Memory Of Seth Low By Frederick A.
