SICKNESS

SICKNESS

We bring before You, merciful Father, in the arms of our faith, that beloved member of our household on whom You have been pleased to lay the hand of sickness. In their chasteningówe are chastened. In their sufferingsówe suffer. Give us tender sympathyóto watch and to alleviate. In the sick chamberómay we be gentleness and love. Grant Your blessing to all the remedies, which, trusting in You, we use. If it is Your gracious will, arrest the malady, and may the voice of health and gladness again gladden our dwelling. Especially give patience in all pain and languor, and may the sufferer humbly bless Your heavenly will, knowing that You do all things well. </p>
