O, God, full of compassion.
Thou who dwellest on high, grant perfect rest beneath the shelter of Thy
divine presence among the holy and pure who shine as the brightness of the
firmament to the soul of my beloved who has gone to his (her) eternal home.
Mayest Thou, O God of
Mercy, shelter him (her) forever under the wings of Thy presence, May his
(her) soul be bound up in the bond of life eternal, and grant that the
memories of my life inspire me always to noble and consecrated living. Amen.
