For those who have lost their lives

Lord God, Creator of all,
you have made us creatures of this earth,
but have also promised us a share in eternal life.
We commend into your hands all who have died.
According to your promises,
bring them to the joy of heaven,
where there is neither sorrow nor pain,
but life everlasting;through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
