1. Tröst’ die Bedrängten
und hilf den Kranken,
Sankt Raphael,
Bresten und Schaden
uns überladen,
o hilf, o hilf, Sankt Raphael.

2. Wann wir uns legen,
tu unser pflegen,
Sankt Raphael,
unsere Schmerzen
nehme zu Herzen,
o hilf, o hilf, Sankt Raphael.

3. Hin zum Verderben,
lass niemand sterben,
Sankt Raphael,
beichten und büßen
alle wir müssen,
o hilf, o hilf, Sankt Raphael.
