"Dear Lord, law enforcement is not an easy task to do,

Yet, there are many who choose to wear the shield.

They serve each day, to the oaths they swore are true,

Protecting and serving, a safer, better world to build.

 


Lord now we gather to pay our deepest honor,

To those of ours officers, killed in the line of duty.

It matters not the style of shield they wore,

Only that they served with pride, and honor.

 


Lord all that matters is that they were one of us,

Serving wherever needed, richest mansion to dirtiest alley.

Confident and proud, highly honored by the peoples trust,

So they carried a shield, mindful of all their sacred duties.

 


Lord you have called several of ours home to glory,

The race with life for them is now done.

Peace, blessed peace, in safety, forever now with Thee,

Welcome rest, now in heaven for all of eternity.

 


May time never erase the sacrifices that were made,

May no officer ever fall alone, to lie cold in their grave .

May those of us still serving, remember well the price they paid,

May their memories stand forever as those who went down brave.

 


Lord give us courage to carry on, to still live and care,

To not be vengeful or bitter, to simply trust Your word it true.

May we always cover with pride the shield we wear,

To honor all fallen officers, whom we now commend to you".

 


R.I.P.
