Woman Praying at a Grave

Prayer in Time of Sorrow

Father of all mercies and God of consolation, You love us eternally and transform the shadows of death into the dawn of life.

Look upon our grief. Be our refuge and comfort so that our sadness and sorrow may turn into the light and peace of your presence. In dying, your Son destroyed death. In rising, He restored life.

Grant that at the end of our earthly pilgrimage, we may be found in his company with our brothers and sisters. There, You shall wipe away every tear. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen

(From Companions of St. Anthony)
