Sonnet: God Alone Heals

O God, Thou Physician par excellence! Thou art the Healer of every ailment; Disease can’t strike without Thine allowance; Thou knowest man’s body, mind’s temperament. No vermin can touch any man, woman, Without Thine knowledge and Thine permission; No human being can increase life-span, Without Thine grace, divine intervention. More evil spirits trouble mankind much; From womb to tomb, the strife is harming all; We plead, O God, extend a healing touch; The Science we know of can’t diseases stall! O Omnipotent God, show us more cures! All life, man only suffering endures!
