Lord Jesus, our Savior and our brother,
listen to our prayer and look with love on Your child.
Visit him/her in this time of sickness
and fill him/her with the gifts of your Spirit,
that he/she may have the courage to carry your cross,
the strength to believe in your love,
and the faith to persevere in hope and prayer.
Restore his/her strength
and bring him/her back to full health.
Lord Jesus, unite our prayer to your own,
and present it to God most high.
To God be glory and praise for ever and ever.
Amen.
