Prayer for End of Pandemic

Graciously hear us, O God, our only salvation!

And through the intercession of the glorious and blessed Mary,Mother of God and ever Virgin,

deliver thy people from the terrors of thy wrath, and restore their confidence by the outpouring of thy compassion.

Be moved to pity, O Lord, at our earnest entreaties, and heal the illnesses of body and soul,

so that experiencing thy forgiveness we may ever rejoice in thy blessing.

We beseech you, O Lord, grant us a hearing as we devoutly raise our petitions to thee,

and graciously turn away the present pandemic which afflicts us;

so that mortal hearts may recognize that these scourges proceed 

from thine indignation and cease only when thou art moved to mercy.

Through Our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
