Prayers for the Sick and Injured

O Father of mercies and God of all comfort, our only help in time of need: We humbly beseech thee to behold, visit, and relieve thy sick servants, for whom are prayers are desired. Look upon them with the eyes of thy mercy; comfort them with a sense of thy goodness; preserve them from the temptations of the enemy; and give them patience under thier affliction. In thy good time, restore them to health, and enable them to lead the residue of thier life in thy fear, and to thy glory; and grant that finally they may dwell with thee in life everlasting; thorugh Jesus Christ our Lord.


Amen


(prayer for the sick, pg 458 Book of Common Prayer, Oxford University Press, 1990)
