"Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it." Ecclesiastes 12:7, The Holy Bible - King James Version.

We pray for our departed ones ...

"O Thou, full of mercy! Renew Thy creation at the resurrection. O Lord! Comfort and absolve our departed ones, who died with hope in Thee, and await Thy coming. Make them dwell in the bosom of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob. May the living and the departed together cry out: Blessed is He, who has come, and is to come, and give life to the dead. Amen."

Prayer of Mor Balay, Prayer Book of Jacobite Christians.
