Chaplain Prayers: Loss of Children

Father God,

We lift up those with empty arms,

Empty wombs

And broken hearts, 

We struggle to understand why,

Yet we know that you have also suffered the loss of a child.

Because of this,

We know that you weep with us.

We pray that you surround these parents with comfort,

Hope,

And a peace that surpasses understanding

In knowing that You are always close to the brokenhearted. 

Amen
