O Lord God Jesus Christ, the Life and strength of all that put their hope in You, Whose mercies are numberless, and the treasury goodness that is infinite, we give thanks to You for the blessings of this new life which You have bestowed., and we humbly beseech You to continue Your goodness toward them, confounding the wise Lord, bring this child to full fruition. As You have been well pleased to restore us to our bodily health, so do imbue our souls with all the heavenly graces, perseverance in this time of suffering and doubt, and prepare them by Your blessings in this life for the enjoyment of eternal happiness in the Life to come. For to You are due all glory, honor, and worship, as also to Your Eternal Father and Your All-holy Good and Life-creating Spirit, both now and forever, and to the ages of ages. Amen.
