Lord, guide and protect cajunhillbilly’s family on the journey
they are taking. Watch over them. Protect them from accidents.
Keep them free from harm to body or soul.
Lord, support them with Your grace when they are
tired. Help them be patient in any trouble which may
come their way.
Keep them always mindful of Your presence and love.
Amen
Saints of God, come to their aid!
Come to meet them, angels of the Lord!
Receive their souls and present
them to God, the Most High
May Christ who called you take you
to himself;
may angels lead you to the bosom of
Abraham.
Receive their souls and present
them to God, the Most High.
Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord,
and let perpetual light shine upon them.
Receive their souls and present
them to God, the Most High.
Amen
Father of all mercies and God of consolation, You
love us eternally and transform the shadows of
death into the dawn of life. Look upon our grief; be
our refuge and comfort so that our sadness and
sorrow may turn into the light and peace of Your
Presence. In dying, Your Son destroyed death; in
rising, He restored life. Grant that at the end of our
earthly pilgrimage we may be found in His company
with our brothers and sisters. There, You shall wipe
away every tear. We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen
