A
PRAYER,
For those that are Visited.
OH Lord God, thou best Physician,
both of our Souls and Bodies,
who canst bring to the Grave, and pull
back again, whom thou pleasest; which
wert moved at the Prayers of Moses for o∣thers,
of Ezekiah for himself; O Lord,
hear me for others, others for me, and
all of us for thy Son; and look with the
Eye of mercy upon me, whom it hath
pleased thee, at this time, to visit with
the Plague and Sickness: O Lord, I
am held in thy fetters; Oh thou which
hast bound me, loose me; and, if it tend
unto thy glory, and my good, restore
my health unto me. O Lord, I have
descriptionPage 16
been an unprofitable Servant all my Life
time: Oh then, let me not then be be∣reft
of the Life of Nature, when I be∣gin
the Life of Grace; but if thou hast
disposed of me otherwise, increase my
Patience with my Pains; shew thy
strength in sustaining my weakness, and
be my strong Fortress, in this hour of my
Trya••; give me grace to apprehend and
apply all the merits and mercies of
Christ unto my Soul; and, O Lord, let
thy Comforter oppose the Tempter, in
such a measure, that he may not pre∣vail
against me; but as thou makest me
like Lazarus, full of Sores, so let also
thy Angells carry me into Abrahams bo∣some.
O Lord, I intreat, let me ob∣tain,
even for his sake, for whom thou
hast promised, and bound thy self, to
hear and help the afflicted, even thy
Son, and my Saviour, Christ Jesus:
To whom, with thee, and thy blessed
Spirit, be all Praise, &c.
