Come, to his/her aid, O saints of God;
Come, meet him/her angels of the Lord.
R.:
Receive his/her soul, O holy ones;
Present him/her now to God, Most High.

May Christ, who called you, take you home,
And angels lead you to Abraham.
R.

Give him/her eternal rest, O Lord.
May light unendding shine on him/her.
R.

I know that my redeemer lives;
The last day I shall rise again.
R.
