This is an Iona prayer which has a beautiful tune from the CD The "Last Journey"

O Christ, you wept when grief was raw,

and felt for those who mourned a friend;

come close to where we would not be

and hold us numbed by this life's end

The well-loved voice is silent now

and we have much we meant to say;

collect our lost and wandering words

and keep them till the endless day.

We try to hold what is not here

and fear for what we do not know.

Oh, take our hands in yours, good Lord,

and free us to let our friend go.

In all our loneliness and doubt,

beyond what we can realize,

address us from your empty tomb

and tell us that life never ends.
