Prayer for the Sick near Death
Almighty and Everlasting God, preserver of souls, who dost correct those whom Thou dost love,
and for their betterment dost tenderly chastise those whom Thou dost receive, we call upon Thee,
O Lord, to grant Thy healing, that the soul of Thy servant, at the hour of its departure from the
body, may by the hands of Thy holy Angels be presented without spot unto Thee. Amen.
Prayer for the Sick
Dear Jesus, Divine Physician and Healer of the sick, we turn to you in this time of illness. O
dearest comforter of the troubled, alleviate our worry and sorrow with your gentle love, and
grant us the grace and strength to accept this burden. Dear God, we place our worries in your
hands. We place our sick under your care and humbly ask that you restore your servant to health
again. Above all, grant us the grace to acknowledge your will and know that whatever you do,
you do for the love of us. Amen.
Prayer to Our Lady, Health of the Sick
Virgin, most holy, Mother of the Word Incarnate, Treasurer of graces, and Refuge of sinners, I
fly top your motherly affection with lively faith, and I beg of you the grace ever to do the will of
God.
Into your most holy hands I commit the keeping of my heart, asking you for health of soul and
body, in the certain hope that you, my most loving Mother, will hear my prayer.
Into the bosom of your tender mercy, this day, every day of my life, and at the hour of my death,
I commend my soul and body.
To you I entrust all my hopes and consolations, all my trials and miseries, my life and the end of
my life, that all my actions may be ordered and disposed according to your will and that of your
Divine Son.
Amen.
