It has been 100 days today
since my father left us to be with the Lord.
I really MISS you, my dearest father.
A beautiful life that came to an end,
He died as He lived, everyone's friend.
In our hearts a memory will always be kept,
Of one we loved, and will never forget.
Lord, God, I entrust my father to your mercy.
You loved him greatly in this life,
now that he is freed from all its cares,
give him happiness and peace for ever.
Welcome him now into paradise
where there will be no more sorrow,
no more weeping or pain,
but only peace and joy with Jesus your Son,
and the Holy Spirit forever.
It was You, O God,
Who commanded us to honour our parents.
In Your kindness have mercy
on the soul of my father,
and forgive him of his sins.
Grant that we may see him again
in the brightness of Your everlasting glory.
We ask this through Your Son,
our Lord, Jesus Christ. Amen.
Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord,
and let perpetual light shine upon him.
May he rest in peace.
Amen.
May his soul,
and the souls of all the faithful departed,
through the mercy of God,
rest in peace.
Amen.
