Prayer Before an Operation
Father, as I face this operation, I come to Thee with my fears and misgivings and ask Thee to put into my heart the needed courage to face the day with unwavering confidence in Thy goodness and protection. May the knowledge that Thou dost not slumber nor sleep while I am in a deep sleep, be an assurance to me that I need not worry nor be afraid. Calm my nerves, put my mind at ease and, in Thy Mercy, forgive me all my sins.
Give to the surgeon a steady hand and the skill to do his task with ease and perfection. Give to my loved ones the reassuring faith that Thou art with us, the Keeper of my body and the Lover of my soul! Calm all their anxieties during the coming hours of my operation.
Into Thy Hands I entrust my well being. All this I ask, Father, in the Name of Jesus and through the merits of His Most Precious Blood. Amen.
