Flavour text
Cremation of the dead is not a religious ritual in Ravnica. It's a business designed to keep the Golgari from growing in numbers.
Rulings
If the target card is no longer in the graveyard when Cremate tries to resolve, it won't resolve and none of its effects will happen. You won't draw a card.
You must be able to target a card in a graveyard to cast Cremate.
