All our times are in Thy hand.
All diseases come at Thy call, and go at Thy bidding.
Thou redeemest our life from destruction, and crownest us
with loving kindness and tender mercies. We bless Thee,
that Thou hast heard prayer, and commanded deliverances
for our friend and Thy servant, who has been under Thine
afflicting hand. He (or she) was brought low, but Thou
hast helped him (her). May he (she) not only live, but
declare the works of the Lord!
As Thou hast delivered his eyes from tears, his feet
from falling, and his soul from death, may he daily
inquire:
What shall I render unto the Lord for all his benefits
towards me,
and resolve to offer unto Thee the sacrifices of
thanksgiving, and to call upon the name of the Lord.
May we ever remember that recovery is only a reprieve and
that some day we will go to our rest in the Lord. May we
therefore secure the righteous path and live with eternity
ever in our view.
