Prayer for the US Navy

Folks, in view of the recent killing of a U.S. sailor in Afghanistan, and the possible capture of one other, I invite all of you to pray for our sailors in harm’s way and at sea.

O eternal Lord, God, you alone spread out the heavens and rule the raging sea. Take into your most gracious protection our country's Navy and all who serve therein. Preserve them from the dangers of the sea and from the violence of the enemy, that they may be a safeguard unto the United States of America, and a security for such as sail upon the seas in peaceful and lawful missions. In serving you, O Lord, may our Sailors serve their country; through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
