Say A Prayer...

Thanksgiving for the Life of the Deceased
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
who has blessed us all with the gift of this earthly life
and has given to our brother/sister [Name]
his/her span of years and gifts of character.
God our Father, we thank you now for all his/her life,
for every memory of love and joy,
for every good deed done by him/her
and every sorrow shared with us.
We thank you for his/her life and for his/her death,
we thank you for the rest in Christ he/she now enjoys,
we thank you for giving him/her to us,
we thank you for the glory we shall share together.
Hear our prayers through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.



Christian Funeral Prayer
Soul of Christ, sanctify me.
Body of Christ, save me.
Blood of Christ, refresh me.
Water from the side of Christ, wash me.
Passion of Christ, strengthen me.
O good Jesus, hear me.
Within your wounds hide me.
Let me never be separated from you.
From the power of darkness defend me.
In the hour of my death, call me
and bid me come to you,
that with your saints I may praise you
for ever and ever.
Amen.



Day by Day
Lord Jesus Christ, we thank you
for all the benefits you have won for us,
for all the pains and insults you have borne for us.
Most merciful redeemer,
friend and brother,
may we know you more clearly,
love you more dearly,
and follow you more nearly,
day by day.
Amen.

Twenty Years Ago - Today

"I'm sure we had to study composition or something like that at school, and they'd say 'This is the way you do it,' and that's the way I would have done it, so being blessed again with not knowing what was wrong or what was right, I went on my own way....So the structure sometimes has the chorus at the end of the song, and sometimes there is no chorus, it just goes...But that's always after the fact--as I'm writing, it all sounds natural and in sequence to me." - Roy Kelton Orbison

His birth name was Roy Kelton Orbison - and he was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Foundation Hall of Fame one short year before his passing; in 1987 hence.
Date of Birth: 4/23/1936
Place of Birth: Vernon, TX

DEATH... IS NOT THE END

This blog is meritorious 

of a formal introduction... 

(see, also the top three posts pinned on top 

as you access deathtodeath.blogspot.ca!)

 SO HERE IT IS! 

With this blog, the TLB Prime Network 

makes a further statement: 

one already made with The Truth 

and luminous praising 

but, here, we make it so 

that it hopefully reaches out 

to all the non-believers out there...

And this one goes out to 

all the DEAD, also --- 

as they know the truth now! 

WITHOUT THE SHADOW OF A DOUBT!

The dead - real or fictitious 

(the latter being extremely helpful, at times, 

in illustrating the points we have to have 

coming across here...)

For Today... 

We celebrate the Birth 

of Life --- 

LIFE ETERNAL! 

He Who Vanquished Death 

And Is The Way 

To Life Everlasting! 

Death no longer holds sway 

on any True Believer 

(and we don't mean you, Stan Lee 

and all your Marvel Zombies...)

Thus, verily we can proclaim... 

 DEATH... TO DEATH!
