How to pray for a peaceful death

There are many Catholic prayers for a peaceful death, but it is best to pray specifically for the person’s death. A Catholic prays for the peace of soul of the departed, and asks God to forgive them their sins and take them into His eternal glory. Catholics also often pray that the departed may enter into Heaven quickly. Some common prayers include:

-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 trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil.

-O Lord God Almighty, Creator of all things visible and invisible; Who hast made me born again to life everlasting; Grant that I may die in peace, with hope of a happy resurrection through Thy grace; And protect me from every evil whereby I may die; That I may arrive at that joy which thou hast prepared for me above, Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

-Lord have mercy on me a sinner! Have mercy on me, O Lord, according to thy great love; according to thy unspeakable gift;according to the multitude of thy benefits bestowed upon me;Grant that I may die in peace, and after my departure make mention of me among those who have gone before me.
