15. Mark Elder Psalm
Oh God, my heart breaks at the loss of so many loved ones.
My parents, close family members, childhood friends, and a dear pet
All have departed this earth in just a mere five-year period.
Each loss distinguishes light in my life;
Putting me into greater and greater darkness
And devoid of so many of my champions, paragons, and confidants.
But when I pray to You and think upon these precious souls,
I feel their presence in my life burning anew
And am reminded of the powerful impact they have had on shaping me.
In quiet fellowship with You oh God,
I am always connected in love with those I have lost.
I rejoice that these beloved live on as part of the communion of saints,
No longer earthly ash but celestial spirit. 
Lord, I give thanks that their light is not really distinguished,
Just transformed into a new, undying warmth
that illuminates and brightens my life every day.
I praise You for holding them in Your tender care.
Because of Your grace through Christ Jesus,
I know there is the promise of new life today and always.
With that assurance, I live my life with new hope.
