Time heals all wounds and scars the appropriate ones.


Upon this soul take pity, my Lord
Upon this soul pour out thy ever present mercy.

Upon this earth lie my body down
Upon this earth lie down this short life.

Upon this body remove the wounds,
Upon this body leave only smooth.

Upon this mind leave only ease
Upon this mind give a freedom.

Upon this man give whatever thou may, my Lord
Upon this man give rest.

Amen.
