Lou, just to go back a bit to your vision.....
>I came to a very tall Gate that opened and I saw a Great Gulf that was joined by a narrow bridge
Maybe the image of a great gulf spanned by a narrow bridge brought that prayer to mind.
For is this not an image of the abyss?
>If it is so that you have gathered our suffering in your poor body, if it is so that you have borne it with you through death, if it is so that you meet God over there in the other land, if it is so that He turns His face toward you, if it is so that you can speak the language this God understands, if it is so that you can speak to this God. If it is so, pray for us. Agnes, my dear child, listen to what I am now telling you. Pray for us who are left here on this dark and dirty earth under an empty and cruel Heaven.
