16 But as for me, I shall sing of Your strength;

Yes, I shall joyfully sing of Your lovingkindness in the morning,

Psalm 59:16 LEB
But as for me, I will sing of your strength, and I will hail your loyal love in the morning, because you have been my high stronghold and a refuge in my time of trouble.

16 But as for me, I shall sing of Your strength;

Yes, I shall joyfully sing of Your lovingkindness in the morning,

For You have been my stronghold

And a refuge in the day of my distress.

I am honored to be here and to be a part of this wonderful celebration. Nurses truly hold a special place in my heart.

Please hold out your hands

Today we gather not only to celebrate this great achievement but to call on our Lord to guide your path. You will experience many joyous times and trying times in your journey. For that reason we gather together in unison to ask the King Eternal to strengthen and guide you.
You are God’s hands, may He uphold and comfort you by the assurance of His constant presence at your side and of His healing strength in your hands.
This is a special moment in your journey to becoming a nurse, (or as I prefer the term an angel of mercy,) the days that lay ahead will be challenging at times, may God strengthen you. You will have days of great joy and days of great sorrow, may He be your stronghold.

Please hold out your hands and bow your heads w/ me

O’ Gracious Lord, we gather here tonight before friends, family and colleagues in celebration of what the future holds. We gather before You, our great God, who holds the future. Lord we ask Your blessing upon the lives and careers of these, your servants. Upon the lives of each and every patient, family member and co-worker they encounter.
We ask You, our great God, to prepare these hearts as well as these hands for the journey they begin today. We ask You, our Lord, to provide wisdom, peace, joy, compassion and a desire to serve their fellow man/woman.
We ask You, our Lord, for great boldness in their witness to those You put in their care, that You provide true healing through the touch of their hands.
