Remembering our relatives and friends
who are no more, the people who have left deep good traces in us with their
lives, their actions, and their benefits, is the most widespread and most
natural thing in the world. Funerary and commemorative monuments, today
photographs exhibited in plain sight in the house, amply testify to this. But
for Christians, the memory of the dead is accompanied by the intercessory
prayer for them and for all the dead whose faith God alone knows.
Do not fail to pray for our fallen
heroes today; they need our prayers.
Help,
Lord, the souls which Thou hast made,
The souls to Thee so dear,
In prison for the debt unpaid,
Of sins committed here.
Good
Jesus, help! Sweet Jesus, aid
The souls to Thee most dear,
In prison for the debt unpaid
Of sins committed here.
May the
souls of the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace, amen.
