O God, look down with mercy and loving-kindness on our dear brother, afflicted with sickness unto death; give him perfect resignation to Thy divine will, and graciously enable him to suffer, without complaining, whatever Thou art pleased to appoint. O compassionate Lord Jesus Christ, support and comfort him. O Most Holy Theotokos, and all ye blessed saints, intercede for him, that he may acquire much virtue in passing through this time of trial and be purified thereby from the smallest stain, so that at the moment of his departure from this valley of tears, he may enter into the joys which God has prepared for those who love and serve Him, through our Lord and God and Savior, Jesus Christ, together with His unoriginate Father, and His Most Holy and good and life-creating Spirit, now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen.
