Please pray for a friend of mine's father, who is in the hospital, and may not make it through the night.

He is very ill with pneumonia and also gastroenteritis, and the antibiotics are not helping.

Please pray for his health and soul and his family.

Hail, holy Queen, Mother of Mercy!
Our life, our sweetness, and our hope!
To thee do we cry, poor banished
children of Eve, to thee do we send
up our sighs, mourning and weeping
in this valley, of tears.

Turn, then, most gracious advocate,
thine eyes of mercy toward us; and
after this our exile show unto us the
blessed fruit of thy womb Jesus;
O clement, O loving, O sweet virgin Mary.

Pray for us, O holy Mother of God
That we may be made worthy of the
promises of Christ.

Lord have mercy, Christ have mercy.
Lord have mercy, Christ have mercy.
Lord have mercy, Christ have mercy.

Lord have mercy! Christ have mercy!  St. Joseph, come to his aid! St. Philomena , be by his side! Prayers for his family. :crucifix:

Lord have mercy, Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy, Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy, Christ have mercy

Watch, O Lord,
with those who wake, or watch or weep tonight,
and give your angels charge over those who sleep.
Tend your sick ones, O Lord Jesus Christ.
Rest your weary ones. Bless your dying ones.
Soothe your suffering ones. Pity your afflicted ones.
Shield your joyous ones; and all for your love's sake.
Amen.
St. Augustine of Hippo

I am afraid my friend's father has passed on.

Please, prayers.

Lord have mercy, Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy, Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy, Christ have mercy

Hail Mary full of grace the Lord is with thee
blessed art thou amongst women
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus
Holy Mary mother of God pray for us sinners
now and at the hour of our death
Amen

Mother Mary, I entrust this dying father to your loving care.  Please help him to persevere in a state of grace; help him to be prepared to meet with Our Lord.  Please be with him in his final agony and defend him from the evil spirits who may try to tempt him to despair.  Help him to die a happy, peaceful death.  May Our Lord grant him eternal life.   

Hail Mary...

Amen.

Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord; and let perpetual light shine upon him.  May he rest in peace.  Amen.

Amen.

Amen.
