A Prayer of Resurrection to New Life

Gentle Jesus,
in our mourning,
you are our comfort.
Through the sorrows of your Passion
you are our Risen Lord.

We believe that those we love
have gone before us in faith
and now rest in your gentle embrace.

Dear Lord, strengthen our hope,
and dry our every tear
for you shed tears for Lazarus,
then called him to new life.

Amen.
