If the tank expects you to speed up the kills by spamming Holy, they better be using some big cooldowns (looking at you, paladins who don't use Hallowed Ground) because I can't DPS when I have to babysit the wild roller coaster that is their hp bar.
Unless they have very low gear or they are extra terrible not moving out of AoE's as much as possible they should be fine to start with stoneskin on then divine seal regen and medica II. If you can't find time after that to shroud cleric stance swiftcast and holy then punch them in the face. After that you should be able to use presence of mind and get off a couple more before you need to drop cleric stance and heal. Holy also stuns so you are buying the Tank time to heal up.
