Prayer For Dead Pet
Lord Almighty God, this animal brought sunshine to us and was a vital part of our lives. His passing has created a void in our hearts that cannot be filled. We do not question the will of God, but ask Him to be merciful in our loss. Amen.
Heavenly Father... We know that not even a sparrow falls without your knowledge, so we know that you are here with us today. Although this beloved companion animal will be missed very much, we give thanks to you for allowing us to have so many wonderful years with her. Thank you for this and for all thy blessing, Lord. Amen.
Heavenly Father, Creator of all things, thank you for having entrusted us with a loyal pet. Thank you for letting him teach us unselfish love. Thank you for the memories that we can recall to brighten our days for the rest of our lives. Finally, in gratitude, we return our pet to you. Amen.
Our Father, Who art in heaven
Hallowed be Thy Name,
Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trepasses
as we forgive those who trespass against us,
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. Amen.
