O merciful God, whose blessed Son went about doing good; Uphold with
thy strength and grace those who do service to the wounded and the
sick; grant to the ministers of thy gospel faithfulness and love, to
the physicians and surgeons wisdom and skill, to the nurses sympathy
and patience; and we beseech thee to protect and bless them in all
dangers, anxieties, and labours; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
_Amen._
