God of Healing, in the wilderness when your people were beset by snakes you told your servant Moses to lift up a bronze snake on a pole that all who gazed upon it might be healed. In this season of Lent we remember how your Son was lifted that all who gazed upon him might know life. Heal us, body and soul, to do your will in this world, through Jesus Christ our Lord, who is alive and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.
