Eternal God, From whom all life comes, and to whom all life returns, We remember all who served our country in the military. We remember and we give thanks: For the sacrifices and devotion; For the life, faith, and love in each. We remember and we pray for: Those who bear wounds, mental and physical; Those who care and provide for our veterans; Those who grieve for loved ones who have died. May the day soon come When swords are beaten into plowshares, When war is no more, and When your peace will be known through all the world. Amen. Unknown
