As I care for my patients today,
Be there with me, O Lord, I pray.
Make my words kind –
It means so much
And in my hands
Place Your healing touch.
Let Your love shine through
In all I do,
So those who are in need
May hear You, feel You,
See You in me.
AMEN
Give to my heart, O Lord…
Compassion and understanding.
Give to my hands, skill and tenderness.
Give to my ears, the ability to listen.
Give to my lips, words of comfort.
Give to me, O Lord…
Strength for this selfless service.
And enable me to give hope
To those I am called to serve.
AMEN
Lord, please help me to bring
Comfort where there is pain
Courage where there is fear
Hope where there is despair
Acceptance when the end is near
And a gentle touch with
Tenderness, patience and love.
AMEN
