we join to thank you for the life remembered,

God of creation.

strongly recapture thoughts of resurrection.

give to your people for the day's affliction
your benediction. Topics: Death and Life to Come; Death of Believers; Funeral and memorial service; Grief and sorrow; Hope Scripture: Ephesians 2:11-22 Languages: English Tune Title: CHRISTE SANCTORUM
