Coast Guard Prayer
Almighty and Everlasting God, Whose
hand stills the tumult of the deep, we offer our prayers for those who serve in
our coast Guard. We are mindful of their traditions of selfless service to the
seafarers who make their ways to appointed ports. Employ their devotions of
good ends as they track the weather and search for the seas for those in
extremity of storm, shipwreck or battle. Make their soundings and markings sure
that safe passages may be found by those who go down to the sea in ships.
Encourage them, O Lord, as they stand guard over our coasts and the bulwarks of
our freedoms. Graciously deliver them from threatening calamities in all their
perilous voyages. Bless the keepers of the lights and be Thou their close
friend in lonely watches. Keep the beacons of honor and duty burning that they
may reach the home port with duty well performed, in service to Thee and our
land.
Amen
