PRAYER FOR THE SICK

O merciful Jesus, You Who have healed so many sick during Your earthly life, hear my humble prayer for Your sick servant N…, for whom I implore the aid of Your love and mercy. He (she) is laboring under sickness of body and their soul is depressed by interior anguish. O good Jesus, restore him (her) to bodily health through the intercession of Your powerful Mother that he (she) may give thanks to You and praise You before all men. Amen.
