O God, the Creator and Redeemer of all the faithful: grant to the souls of Thy servants and handmaids the remission of all their sins: that through pious supplications, they may obtain that pardon which they have always desired: Who livest and reignest forever and ever. Amen.

-Collect from the First Mass of All Soul’s Day

Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May they rest in peace. Amen.

That’s from 4 Esdras chapter 2 verse 34-35 I believe. One of the few apocryphal texts cited in Liturgy.
