O God, whose will is life and good
For all of mortal breath:
Unite in bonds of servanthood
All those who strive with death.

Make strong their hands and hearts and wills
To drive disease afar,
To strive against the body’s ills
And wage Your healing war.

Christ’s mercy they proclaim,
Make known the great physician’s mind,
Affirm the Savior’s name.

Before them set Your gracious will,
That they, with heart and soul,
To You may consecrate their skill
And make the sufferer whole.
