Thoughts and prayers

The phrase "thoughts and prayers" is often used by public officials offering condolences.

If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, and one of you say unto them, "Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled"; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit? Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead. ~ James the Just
