1) We pray for those
who've gone before.
Marked by the sign of grace
Who walked in faith
yet still await the fullness
of your face.
Their souls now purified
by love in mercy's gentle flame.
Till heaven's gates are open wide.
We call upon your name.
Refrain:
Eternal rest grant unto them,
oh Lord, and let perpetual light
shine upon them.
May their souls
and all the souls of the
faithful departed
Through the mercy of God
rest in peace.
Amen.
2) You are the Lord
of life and death,
our hope beyond the tomb.
Through Christ who conquered
sin and grave,
you've turned our night to bloom.
We trust your promise
ever sure that all who die in you
shall rise again in glory's light
made pure,
redeemed and true.
Refrain:
Eternal rest grant unto them,
oh Lord, and let perpetual light
shine upon them.
May their souls
and all the souls of the
faithful departed
Through the mercy of God
rest in peace.
Amen.
3) Oh sacred heart
so full of grace,
receive their souls we plead
and teach our hearts
while still we wait
to serve in faith and deed.
Refrain:
Eternal Rest (Eternal rest).
grant unto them, oh Lord,
and let perpetual
light
shine upon them.
May their souls
and all the souls
of the faithful departed
through the mercy of God
rest in peace.
Amen.
