Asking Divine Protection for Those In
Service

O God, I beseech You, watch over those
exposed to the horror of war, and the
spiritual dangers of a soldier’s or sailor’s life.

Give them such a strong faith that no human
respect may ever lead them to deny it, nor
fear ever to practice it. By Your grace, O God,
fortify them against the contagion of bad
example, that being preserved from vice, and
serving You faithfully, they may be ready to
meet you face to face when they are so
called: through Christ our Lord. Amen

Sacred Heart! Inspire them with sorrow for
sin, and grant them pardon. Mother of God!
Be with them on the battlefield during life
and at the hour of death, and grant that they
may live and die in the grace of thy Son.
Amen. St. Joseph! Pray for them. May their
Guardian Angel protect them. Amen.


Special Forces Prayer

Almighty God Who art the Author of Liberty and
the Champion of the oppressed hear our prayer.
We the men of Special Forces, acknowledge our
dependence upon Thee in the preservation of
human freedom.

Go with us as we seek to defend the defenseless
and to free the enslaved. May we ever remember
that our nation, whose oath "in God We Trust,"
expects that we shall requit ourselves with honor,
that we may never bring shame upon our faith,
our families, or our fellow men.

Grant us wisdom from Thy mind, courage from
Thine heart, and protection by Thine hand. It is
for Thee that we do battle, and to thee belongs
the victor's crown. For Thine is the kingdom, and
the power and glory forever. Amen!


Prayers For Our Soldiers

Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands.
Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and
their families for the selfless acts they perform for
us in our time of need. I ask this in the name of
Jesus, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
