O Saint Giuseppe Moscati, doctor with a huge heart, in the exercise of your profession you cured the body and spirit of your patients.
Turn towards us, too, who now run to you with faith in your intercession.
Give us physical and spiritual health, so that we can serve our brothers with generosity.
Alleviate the pain of those that suffer, give comfort to the sick, consolation to the afflicted, and hope to the hopeless.
Make that the sick might encounter doctors like you, human and Christian.
The youth find in you a model of life, the workers, an example, the old, comfort, and the dying, hope in eternal salvation.
Be for all of us a sure guide. Teach us to work with serenity, honesty and charity, to be able to complete in a Christian way our everyday tasks.
Pause here for your intention.
Amen.
Lord Thou great physician, we kneel before Thee.
Since every good and perfect gift must come from Thee, please give skill to our hands, clear vision to our minds, kindness and sympathy to our hearts.
Give us singleness of purpose, strength to lift at least part of the burden of our suffering fellowmen, and a true realization of the rare privilege that is ours.
Take from our hearts all guile and worldliness, that with the simple faith of a child we may rely on Thee.
Amen.
St Giuseppe Moscati, pray for us.
Our Father, who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
