03841 – “Evening Prayer”

We remember too the loved ones into whose dear eyes we cannot look again. O God, in whom are both the living and the dead, you are still their life and light as you are ours. Wherever they may be, lay your hand tenderly upon them and grant that someday we may meet again and hear once more their broken words of love.

from “Evening Prayer” from For God and the People: Prayers of the Social Awakening
