The Bands of H.M. Royal Marines — Evening Hymn & Sunset: Dear Lord & Father lyrics

Lyrics

O eternal lord God
Who through many generations has united our armed forces
Grant thy blessing, we beseech thee,
On all our service men and women, serving around the world
Bestow thy crown of rightioness
on all their efforts and endeavours
«may their laurels be those of gallantry and honour, loyalty and courage»
«We ask these things in the name of him whose courage never failed,
our Redeemer, Jesus Christ»
Amen
