Glorious / Almighty Heavenly Father! Dearest True Parents of Heaven, Earth, and Humankind, today, we have all gathered here to render glory to True Father as he leaves us for Heaven.
Heavenly Father!
The Messiah You have sent to us, has completed his mission and is now returning back to You. Please tightly embrace Your son, who has had to go through so much suffering on Earth.
Heavenly Father!
How come you so hurriedly called True Father to your side? What about us, your poor children who still need him? It feels like the heavens are falling and the ground is giving way underneath us. Our surroundings have become a dark heaven and earth, as though the sun has lost its light. We attended True Father as though he was our life and sun, and now that he is gone, sadness endlessly overflows from our hearts.
Heavenly Father.
It is true that we have not been filial. When True Father was sleeping for only two hours a day, not hesitating to go to distant places, constantly going back and forth, even though we saw True Father working so hard, we did not pay attention to his suffering. Please forgive the immaturity of your poor children.
Dearest True Father!
We really miss you. We wish we could hear your voice just one more time singing [... with jewels on white gold] The verse of a song we really want to hear from you again Now that we realize that such opportunities no longer exist, tears and sadness just overflows from my heart. True Father! While you loved the members, while you love humanity, you completely forgot about yourself. You never took care of yourself, overworking yourself again and again. Is there a single moment when you ever truly rested?
Father, you are the Messiah, our Savior, the great King of Peace, and the True Parent of Humankind. True Father you have brought victory, complete victory. You have accomplished everything. True Father, you have liberated God from His sadness. True Father, you have equally loved all races, you have unified the races, eradicating the original sin, and have engrafted us to God’s lineage.
The number of the couples whose lives you have touched surpasses 400 million. You have brought the world together into one family under God. True Father! You are the great king of peace! A true world of peace that transcends religion, race, and nation. You have dedicated your whole life on Earth to realize such a world, True Father! You have also liberated Russia, the birthplace of communism. Were you not the Messiah, there is no way you could have accomplished this.
Father!
We also know this is not a time to stay in a state of mourning! It is a blessing to us that our great and wise Mother is still in our midst, True Mother has stood upright and taken on Father’s work on Earth. A born filial son, International President Hyung Jin Moon is with us. A filial son with the talents of a genius, Chairman Kook Jin Moon is also with us.
[The following was planned, but not used because Hyun Jin Moon and his wife did not attend the ceremony: Your son whom you dearly wanted to see, Hyun Jin Moon and his wife are also here with us.]
True Father! Do not worry any longer! We will now stop crying, firmly grasping our two hands, we will attend True Mother, and establish Cheon Il Guk. We will attend True Mother and victoriously celebrate the Foundation Day and make you happy in heaven Now that True Father is in Heaven, we will become an unbeatably strong army.
Let the lofty values of Heaven sweep down on the whole world like a hurricane, and wash away all the sins within Unificationism and the world. True Father, please realize the world of peace you had always hoped for. Looking up toward Heaven, we see You, God, stretching out Your two arms and saying “My Son! Come and let me embrace you!”
True Father, Sit for eternity on God’s right side and become the great king of peace governing the universe, gathering the hearts of the 3 million members around the world, and under the names of the 50,000 saints who are participating here today.
We pray all these things in our names; as blessed central families we pray.
Aju!
