Irish funeral prayer, bereavement, sympathy poem, prayer
As a boy I remember reading the saying on my Dad's Irish funeral prayer card and getting some comfort from the written words. In an perfect world there would never be a need to comfort because there would be no suffering. Until then... Here are some meaningful Irish Bereavement blessings from my collection. They are a great way to show your sentiments and they are thoughtful reminders. These Irish funeral prayer or Irish Bereavement blessings are a combination of traditional Bereavement blessings and Irish designs and graphics. Personalization is highly recommended, however a non personalized version can be produced if you prefer.
In Memory of ____ 19yy - 20yyMay the road rise to meet you. May the wind be always at your back.May the sun shine warm upon your face.May the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again, May the Lord hold you in the palm of His hand. #P-675 Irish funeral prayer

In Memory of[ Loved one’s name ]
God saw you getting tiredand a cure was not to be.So He put His arms around you and whispered “come to me.” With tearful eyes we watched you, and saw you pass away. Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest.God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.#374 Irish funeral prayer

Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.I am a thousand winds that blow;I am the diamond glints on the snow.I am the sunlight that ripened grain;I am the gentle autumns’s rain.When you awaken in the morning’s hush,I am the swift uplifting rush,Of quiet birds in circled flight.I am the soft star that shines at night.Do not stand at my grave and cry.I am not there; I did not die.#386 Irish funeral prayer
[Loved one’s name]Longing For One More DayWhen we lose someone we love it seems that time stands still. What moves through us is a silence... a quiet sadness... A longing for one more day... one more word... one more touch... We may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget. We will see you again some day, in a heavenly place where there is no parting. A place where there are no words that mean good-bye. #667 Irish funeral prayer

If Tears Could Build A Stairway[ loved one’s name ]If tears could build a stairwayand memories were a laneWe would walk right up to heavenAng bring you back again.No farewell words were spokenNo time to say goodbyeYou were gone before we knew itAnd only God knows whyOur hearts still ache in sadnessand secret tears still flowWhat it meant to lose youNo one will ever knowBut now we know you want usTo mourn for you no moreTo remember all the happy timesLife still has much in storeSince you'll never be forgottenWe pledge to you todayA cherished place within our heartIs where you'll always stay#669

[ loved one ]God looked around His gardenAnd found an empty place.He then looked down upon the earthAnd saw your tired face.He put his arms around youAnd lifted you to rest.God’s garden must be beautifulHe always takes the best.He saw the road was getting roughAnd the hills were hard to climb,So He closed your weary eyelidsAnd whispered "Peace be thine".It broke our hearts to lose youBut you didn’t go alone,For part of us went with youThe day God called you home.#670 Irish funeral prayer

[ Mother’s name ] You can only have one motherPatient kind and true;No other friend in all the world,Will be the same to you.When other friends forsake you,To mother you will return,For all her loving kindness,She asks nothing in return.As we look upon her picture,Sweet memories we recall,Of a face so full of sunshine,And a smile for one and all.Sweet Jesus, take this message,To our dear mother up above;Tell her how we miss her,And give her all our love.#671 Irish funeral prayer
