Prayer For Nurses
Healing God, conscious that caregivers reflect your compassion, we honor them and pray for them in a special way today. We ask you to hold them in your tenderness, give them an assurance of your spirit of strength as they minister to your people, and be for them a sign and source of hope. Amen.
As nurses care for their patients today, Oh Lord, be there with them. Let their words be kind and fill their hands with Your healing touch. Allow everything they do be filled with love so that through them, people will feel and hear You.
Amen.
Dear Lord,
The world is in crisis today and nurses are being strongly challenged. Help them to be the best nurses they can be despite the situation.
Bless them with courage so that they can face the challenges head-on. Bless them with a kind bedside manner so that they can care for their patients with respect and understanding. Guide them in providing expert care while ensuring the comfort of their patients.
Lord, let nurses be the source of strength for their patients and families. Let them be each other's light in this difficult time. Fill them with energy so that they can power through their shifts. Shower them with love which they can give to every person under their care.
Amen.
Holy one, as we begin this day, I ask for your guidance.
With your divine hand, Inspire, lead and give thy wisdom.
Throughout this day, may your grace be ever present in this healing place.
Bless our team, our hospital, our unit, as we gather to help those in need,
Let not your help be far away.
We seek your strength and ask that you give spirit as we make decisions for the good.
God of love, teach us to give our best, to speak with love and act with courage.
May we be good stewards of all the gifts you have given. Amen.
Dear Lord, please give me strength,
To face the day ahead.
Dear Lord, please give me courage,
As I approach each hurting bed.
Dear Lord, please give me wisdom
With every word I speak.
Dear Lord, please give me patience,
As I comfort the sick and weak.
Dear Lord, Please give me assurance,
As the day slips into night.
That I have done the best I can,
That I have done what's right.
Give me strength and wisdom,
When others need my touch;
A soothing word to speak to them,
Their hearts yearn for so much.
Give me joy and laughter,
To lift a weary soul;
Pour in me compassion,
To make the broken whole.
Give me gentle, healing hands,
For those left in my care;
A blessing to those who need me,
This is a Nurses prayer.
As I care for my patients today
Be there with me, Oh Lord, I pray.
Make my words kind-it means so much.
And in my hands place Your healing touch.
Let Your love shine through all that I do.
So those in need may hear and feel You.
Amen.
Dear Lord,
Help me to be the best nurse that I can be.
Bless me with the words to impart knowledge with gentility, patience, and a kind bedside manner.
Give me the vision to see those who are struggling with their illness and the ability to help them understand it.
Show me how to provide expert care while making my patient comfortable.
Let me be a source of strength for my patients and their families.
Let me be a constant help to the providers and the other nurses with whom I work.
Lord, fill me with the energy to open each day with a smile regardless of how tired I am.
May I be a true sign of Your love to every person under my care.
