A Prayer in Remembrance of 911
Our Father, in whom is the fullness of light
Instill within us the passion for liberty;
Make us willing to learn to fight
For the passion to lead your people to victory.
Inspire us to seek deeper levels of understanding,
Enlightened by Your Spirit of grace,
Obedience to Your Will and Law notwithstanding,
Until we reach the end of our race.
Be with us in remembrance of 911;
Guide the survivors to know your ways;
Grant next of kin hearts filled with love,
As their guiding principle all of their days.
Show us what is best for those whom we lead.
With a sense of duty to You and our country;
And as Your Word instructs which we do read,
We give You thanks for keeping us free! Amen.
