Prayer for Health

Master of the Universe: In Your compassion, grant us the physical strength, health, and ability required to function effectively, and may we experience no illness or pain. Enable us to serve You in joy, contentment, and health.

Save us all from evil, and prolong our days in goodness and our years in sweetness. Enrich our years and add to our days and years of service to You.

Shield us in the shadow of Your wings, and spare us and all our family from any harsh or evil decree. May we be at rest and calm, vigorous, and fresh to serve and revere You.

(CHIDA, 1724-1806)
