Prayer of Remembrance (Let There Be)

Let there be no difference 

between our lifetime of greetings 

and our last farewell,

let there be no difference

between our loving

and our suffering,

let there be no difference

between our days together

and our nights apart,

let there be no difference

between living life

and life remembered,

let there be no difference

between this world

and the next,

let there be no difference

between the beginning

and the end,

let there be no difference

in the words we said then

and the words we say now:

I love you

I forgive you

You are with me always.
