For Those Missing Someone Who Has Died

Lift us up, Strong Son of God,
that we may see further;

Cleanse our eyes
that we may see more clearly.

Draw us closer to yourself,
that we may know ourselves closer to our beloved,
who are witb You.

And while You prepare a place for us,
prepare us for that place,
That where they are,
And You are, we, too, may be,

Through Your love for us, Lord,
Amen.
