When I lived in Annapolis, I used to attend services at the multi-denominational Naval Academy Chapel. It’s a beautiful church and services there were especially lovely, with the midshipmen and women providing much of the music.
One of the songs that was sung at every service was the Navy Hymn, and I think its words are most appropriate today, Memorial Day, the day on which we remember all those who’ve served our country on the land, in the air, and at sea.
Navy Hymn
Eternal Father, Strong to save,
Whose arm hath bound the restless wave,
Who bid'st the mighty Ocean deep
Its own appointed limits keep;
O hear us when we cry to thee,
for those in peril on the sea.
