Prayer to Be a Nurse

To be a nurse is to walk with God, Along the path that our Master trod; To soothe the achings of human pain, To faithfully serve for little gain, To lovingly do the kindly deed, A cup of water to one in need, A tender hand on a fevered brow, A word of cheer to those living now; To reach the souls through its body’s woe Oh, this is the way that Jesus would go. Oh, white-capped nurses with hearts so true, Our Great Physician is working through you.
