31.<br />

Lord God,<br />

you are attentive to the voice of our pleading.<br />

Let us find in your Son<br />

comfort in our sadness,<br />

certainty in our doubt<br />

and courage to live.<br />

Make our faith strong<br />

through Christ our Lord. Amen.<br />

32.<br />

Risen Lord Jesus,<br />

draw near to us as we walk this lonely road.<br />

Pierce our weary sorrow<br />

and gladden our heavy hearts as you go with us,<br />

and bring us in the end to your heavenly table. Amen.<br />

33.<br />

O God, you do not willingly grieve or afflict your children.<br />

Look with pity on the suffering of this family in their loss.<br />

Sustain them in their anguish;<br />

and into the darkness of their grief<br />

bring the light of your love;<br />

through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.<br />

34.<br />

Almighty God,<br />

Father of all mercies and giver of all comfort:<br />

deal graciously, we pray, with those who mourn,<br />

that, casting all their care on you,<br />

they may know the consolation of your love;<br />

through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.<br />

35.<br />

Out of the darkness of our grief,<br />

we cry to you, O Lord.<br />

You gave him/her to us,<br />

and you have taken him/her away.<br />

Turn to us, Lord, and have pity on us,<br />

and give us the comfort that you alone can give,<br />

through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.<br />
