*THE MARINE HYMN

Eternal Father grant we pray
To all Marines both night and day
The courage, honor, strength and skill
Their land to serve thy law to fulfill
Be thou the shield forevermore
From every peril to the Corps.

Lord, guard and guide the men who fly
Through the great spaces in the sky
Be with them always in the air
In darkening storms or sunlight fair
O hear us when we lift our prayer
For those in peril in the air.

"So we shall always be with the Lord."                                                I Thessalonians 4:17


 
The Shepherd's Psalm

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
   He maketh me to lie down in green pastures;
He leadeth me beside the still waters.
   He restoreth my soul.  He leadeth me in the paths
   of righteousness for His name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the
   shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for
Though art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff they
   comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of
   mine enemies:  Thou anointest my head with oil;
   my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the
   days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of
   the Lord for ever.
