The following is a prayer for our armed forces from the 2nd edition of the “Service Prayer Book”, printed in 1941.
——————————————————————————————————-
O Eternal Lord God, Whose eyes run to and fro throughout the whole earth, be pleased to receive into Thine almighty and most gracious protection those who serve in the armed forces of our country.
We commend them to thy fatherly goodness and pray Thee to take into Thine own hands both them and the cause which they uphold.
Prosper them in the maintenance of our country’s honor and keep them safe from enemies spiritual and temporal.
Grant that all they do may tend to peace on earth: that the inhabitants of our land may in peace and quiet serve Thee, our God; that war being done away, they may fight only in their Christian conflict against sin, the world and the devil, until they are called to rest in the triumphs of Thy glory; through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen

A most sincere thank you to the men and women of our armed forces, both past and present from Mountain Republic.
