Into your hands, O Lord,

we humbly entrust our brother Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.

In this life you embraced him with your tender love,

and opened to him the gate of heaven.

The old order has passed away,

as you welcome him into paradise,

where there will be no sorrow, no weeping nor pain,

but the fullness of peace and joy

with your Son and the Holy Spirit for ever and ever.

Amen

We also join together in this prayer from the Church of England
