Dio MadisonOn this Memorial Day, we remember with deepest gratitude those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom and pause to lift them and their families in prayer.
All Powerful God, we honor today those men and women—our sons and daughters, husbands and wives, fathers, brothers, sisters, mothers—who have laid down their life for their country. Whether weary or emboldened, quiet or defiant, vulnerable or ready when You called them home, their sacrifice is too humbling for words except these uttered in prayer.
Loving Lord, bless them forever in Your eternal peace. Let the sounds of strife, the cries of battle, the wounds of war be calmed for all eternity in Your loving and endless grace. Let these great warriors find rest at last, ever reminded that we who are left behind cherish their spirit, honor their commitment, send them our love, and will never forget the service that they gave.
Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May their souls and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
