PRAYER FOR OUR DEAD
Lift up our dead
strong Son of God;
You are the God of the living
and not the God of the dead.
Come into our upper rooms
with words of “Peace”,
when we feel dead
because of our dead.
Remember their goodness,
their acts of kindness,
all the many ways they
have lifted up our life with their love.
Lift up our dead
strong Son of God;
You are the God of the living
and not the God of the dead.
