And rise to see the perfect day.
The fullness of your mercy give
To this our friend for whom we pray.
O Lamb of God, Redeemer blest,
Grant him/her eternal light and rest.
2 Lord, bless our friend who died in you,
As you have given him/her release.
Enliven him/her since he/she was true,
And give him/her everlasting peace.
O Lamb of God, Redeemer blest,
Grant him/her eternal light and rest.
3 In your green, pleasant pastures feed
The sheep that you have summoned hence;
And by the still, cool waters lead
Your flock in loving providence.
O Lamb of God, Redeemer blest,
Grant him/her eternal light and rest.
4 Direct us with your arm of might,
That with our friend we may all come
To dwell within your city bright,
Jerusalem, our heav'nly home.
O Lamb of God, Redeemer blest,
Grant him/her eternal light and rest. Used With Tune: MELITA
