PRIEST Let us pray unto the Lord.
O Master and Lord
of Sabaoth, our God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, thou that
sittest upon the Cherubim and is hymned by the Seraphim, that dwells in
the highest and looks down on the humble, who makes the sun rise upon
the wicked and the good, and sends rain upon the just and the unjust;
who with thine ineffable might dost rule and govern all creation and
every breath; who chastises and again heals; accept me who now comes to
thy goodness, and turn not in disgust from me a sinner; but hear the
voice of my prayer, O thou that always hears prayers, and send down help
from thy holy dwelling place and have compassion upon the creature of
thy hands, and heal thy servant (.....)
from his/her unremitting illness. PRIEST Let us pray unto the Lord.
O Almighty Master,
the healer of our souls and bodies, who humbles and exalts; who
chastises and also heals; in thy mercy visit our brother/sister
(.....) who is unwell. Stretch forth thine arm, that is full of
healing and raise him/her from his/her
bed and cure him/her from his/her
illness. Expel the spirit of disease; banish from him/her
every wound, every pain, every suffering, every fever or shivering; and
if there be in him/her offences and
transgressions, loose, remit and forgive him/her
through thy loving kindness, Yea, O Lord, spare thy creature, in Jesus
Christ our Lord, with whom thou art blessed, together with thine
all-holy, good and life-giving Spirit, now and for ever; world without
end. Amen. PRIEST
Let
us pray unto the Lord.
