"[The priest may first say — 66 "Is any among you sick? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the Name of the Lord; and the prayer of faith shall save him that is sick, and the Lord shall raise him up.] ["Confession and Absolution, from the Communion Service.] "[V. O Lord, save thy servant. R. Who putteth his trust in thee. "V. Send him help from thy holy place. "R. And evermore mightily defend him. "V. Help us, O God of our salvation. "R. And for the glory of thy Name deliver us, and be merciful to us sinners, for thy Name's sake. 1 The two services which follow are published in full by Mowbrays, 34 Great Castle St., London, W. Price 3d. “V. Lord, hear our prayer. "R. And let our cry come unto thee. "Let us pray. "O Almighty God, who art the giver of all health, and the aid of them that seek to thee for succour, we call upon thee for thy help and goodness mercifully to be showed upon this thy servant, that he being healed of his Infirmities, may give thanks unto thee in thy holy Church, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. "Silent Prayer. “[Then, if the oil be not already blessed, the following Consecration may be used "O Almighty Lord God, who hast taught us by thy holy Apostle Saint James to anoint the sick with oil, that they may attain their bodily health, and render thanks unto thee for the same; look down, we beseech thee, and bless and sanctify this thy creature of oil, the juice of the olive: Grant, that those who shall be anointed therewith, may be delivered from all pains, troubles, and diseases both of the body and mind, and from all the snares, temptations, and assaults of the powers of darkness, through our Lord Jesus Christ thy son; who with thee and the Holy Ghost, liveth and reigneth ever one God, world without end. Amen.] "Then shall the Priest anoint the sick Person upon the forehead, making the sign of the Cross, and saying: "As with this visible oil thy body outwardly is anointed so our heavenly Father, almighty God, grant of his infinite goodness that thy soul inwardly may be anointed with the Holy Ghost, who is the Spirit of all strength, comfort, relief, and gladness. And vouchsafe for his great mercy (if it be his blessed will) to restore unto thee thy bodily health, and strength, to serve him; and send thee release of all thy pains, troubles, and diseases, both in body and mind. And howsoever his goodness (by his divine and unsearchable providence) 2 A moment's pause of recollection may be made here, and after the invocation of God in the other prayers. shall dispose of thee: we his unworthy ministers and servants, humbly beseech the eternal majesty to do with thee according to the multitude of his innumerable mercies: who also vouchsafe mercifully to grant unto thee ghostly strength, by his holy Spirit, to withstand and overcome all temptations and assaults of thine adversary, that in no wise he prevail against thee, but that thou mayest have perfect victory and triumph against the devil, sin, and death, through Christ our Lord: who by his death hath overcome the Prince of death, and with the Father and the Holy Ghost evermore liveth and reigneth, God, world without end. Amen. Pause. "Psalm 23. "The Lord is my shepherd.' Ant. O Saviour of the world. "The Almighty Lord, who is a most strong tower to all them that put their trust in him, to whom all things in heaven, in earth, and under the earth, do bow and obey, be now and evermore thy defence; and make thee know and feel, that there is none other Name under heaven given to man, in whom, and through whom, thou mayest receive health and salvation, but only the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen. "Unto God's gracious mercy and protection we commit thee. The Lord bless thee, and keep thee. The Lord make his face to shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee. The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace, both now and for evermore. Amen. "Silent Prayer." DESCRIPTION OF THE SERVICE. (From the Treasury, September, 1908.) "A small table is prepared in the sick room, with a white cloth upon it, and a lighted candle. In fact the preparation is as for a sick Communion, only that a little piece of cotton rag is placed on a saucer on the table: the priest also might wear his surplice and stole if convenient; but we shall be wise to avoid tying ourselves down in small matters, since external things are useful |
