In memory of those who lost their lives on September 11, 2001, and a Prayer for those who are serving our country today:

 Eternal Father, Strong to Save  

(Navy Hymn)

Eternal Father, strong to save, O Spirit, whom the Father sent
Whose arm hath bound the restless wave, To spread abroad the firmament,
Who bids the mighty ocean deep
O Wind of heaven, by Thy might
Its own appointed limits keep, Save all who dare the eagle’s flight.
O hear us when we cry to Thee And keep them by Thy Watchful care
For those in peril on the sea. From every peril in the air.
O Christ, the Lord of hill and plain O Trinity of love and power,
O’er which our traffic runs amain, Our brethren shield in danger’s hour.
By mountain pass or valley low, From rock and tempest, fire and foe,
Wherever, Lord, our brethren go. Protect them whereso’er they go.
Protect them by Thy guarding hand Thus evermore shall rise to Thee
From every peril on the land. Glad praise from air and land and sea
