Our Prayer for the Sick
Father of mercies and God of all comfort, our only help in time of need, look with favor upon Your servants who are ill. Assure them of Your mercy and comfort them with the awareness of Your goodness. Grant that, resting on Your protection, they may fear no evil, for You are with them to deliver them; through Jesus Christ, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.
