Writing a cover letter and resume?

I just lost my job of 4 years, and I am trying to put together a good professional resume and cover letter. Something that will catch someones eye. I have already composed a resume with job history, skills, education, and references. I was looking at cover letter templates but they all seem geared toward a specific job or position. Is there any 'right' way to write a cover letter for a general employment? Any other advice or help, feel free.
