    Prayer after Communion
     
    Stay with me, Lord, for it is necessary to have You present so that I do not forget You. You know how easily I abandon You. 
    Stay with me, Lord, because I am weak and I need Your strength, that I may not fall so often.

    For the Soul of the Faithful

    Absolve, we beseech you O Lord, the soul of your servant (Name) from every bond of sin that, in the glory of the resurrection, she may be revived and refreshed among your Saints and chosen ones.

    Through Christ our Lord.
    Amen

    Eternal rest grant unto her, O Lord.
    And let perpetual light shine upon her.
