Blessed are you, Lord our God, lover of souls:
you uphold us in life and sustain us in death: to you be glory and praise for ever!
For the darkness of this age is passing away as Christ the
bright and morning star brings to his saints the light of life.
As you give light to those in darkness, who walk in the shadow of death,
so remember in your kingdom your faithful servant PHILIP, Duke of Edinburgh,
that death may be for him the gate to life and to unending fellowship with you;
where with your saints you live and reign, one in the perfect union of love,
now and for ever. Amen.

God of our lives, we give thanks for the life of Prince Philip,
for the love he shared among us, and for his devotion to duty.
We entrust him now to your love and mercy, through our Redeemer Jesus Christ.
Amen.
Merciful God, be close to all who mourn,
especially The Queen and all members of the Royal Family.
May they know the hope of your promises and the comfort of your love,
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
May Christ our Lord give us peace.
Amen.
