Here is a poetic prayer and a collection of scriptures echoing the cry of Jeremiah: "Heal me, Lord, and I will be healed."

Heal Me, and I Will Be Healed
Heal me, Lord, and I will be healed—
Not by the hand of man alone,
But by the touch of Your own hand,
The power from Your throne.
I have tried to mend my wounds
With ointment of my own.
But only You can reach the deep
And make my spirit whole.
You are the Great Physician,
The Healer of the soul.
You bind the brokenhearted up,
And make the broken whole.
So speak the word, and I am well.
Reach down, and I am free.
Not by my faith, but by Your grace—
Heal me, Lord, and I will be.
For every sickness, every pain,
Every sorrow, every stain,
You bore upon the cross for me—
Heal me, Lord, and I will be.
And when the healing does not come
In the way I think it should,
Then heal my doubt, heal my trust,
And let Your will be good.
But still I cry with all my heart—
You are my praise, my hope, my plea.
Heal me, Lord, and I am healed,
For You are everything to me.

A Prayer for Healing
Lord, You are the Great Physician.
You see every wound, every sickness, every pain—
the ones in my body,
the ones in my heart,
the ones hidden deep within.
You said, "Heal me, O Lord, and I will be healed."
So I bring my brokenness to You.
Heal me, Lord, and I will be healed.
Not my will, but Yours be done.
Yet I trust that You are good,
that You are merciful,
that You are able.
If You heal me now, I will praise You.
If You walk with me through the valley,
I will trust You still.
But I ask today for healing.
I ask for wholeness.
I ask for restoration.
Touch me, Lord, and make me whole.
For You are the One I praise.
In Jesus' name,
Amen.
