Matthew 27:50Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.
Mark 15:37And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.
Luke 23:46And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.
John 19:30When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.
The four Gospels all say that Christ cried out at the last . 2 Gospels are not specific about what Christ said. Luke and John appear to disagree about what was said.
The Greek word for "finish: in John:
telew,v {tel-eh'-o}
1) to bring to a close, to finish, to end 1a) passed, finished 2) to perform, execute, complete, fulfil, (so that the thing done corresponds to what has been said, the order, command etc.) 2a) with special reference to the subject matter, to carry out the contents of a command 2b) with reference also to the form, to do just as commanded, and generally involving the notion of time, to perform the last act which completes a process, to accomplish, fulfil 3) to pay 3a) of tribute
The word in Luke, commend is translated from the Greek:
paratiqhmi,v {par-at-ith'-ay-mee}
1) to place beside or near or set before 1a) food, i.e. food placed on a table 1b) to set before (one) in teaching 1c) to set forth (from one's self), to explain 2) to place down (from one's self or for one's self) with any one 2a) to deposit 2b) to intrust, commit to one's charge
One of the things most people forget is that we are dealing with books written in Trade Greek, not proper Greek, 2000 years ago and then translated into English by people five hundred years ago.
Words that we do not think of being synonyms can be used as synonyms.
In this case "commending", or laying the burden down, is a synonym for "Yo, God, I'm done!" or "It is Finished".

(To the Romans) "If you strike me down now I will become more powerful than you can possibly imagine"
Seriously, his last words (translated) mean something along the lines of: "it is finished"

He said, "It is finished," and then He died. He knew that He had come to do the will of His Father.

He whispered to himself "The reserpine is working, I'll be in that hypothermic coma soon and wake up on the third day."
