Most merciful Father, we commend
our departed into your hands. We are
filled with the sure hope that our departed
will rise again on the Last Day with all
who have died in Christ. We thank you for
all the good things you have given during
our departed’ earthly life.
O Father , in your great mercy,
accept our prayer that the Gates of
Paradise may be opened for your servant.
In our turn, may we too be comforted by
the words of faith until we greet Christ in
glory and we are united with you and our
departed. Through Christ our Lord,
Amen
