Law Enforcement Officer's Prayer
O Almighty God,
Whose great power and eternal wisdom embrace the universe. Watch over all the police officers and law enforcement officers. Protect them from harm in the performance of their duty to stop crime, robberies, riots and violence. We pray, help them keep our streets and homes safe day and night. We recommend them to your loving care because their duty is dangerous. Grant them your mending strength and courage in their daily assignments. Dear God, protect these brave men and women and grant them your almighty protection. Unite them safely with their families after duty ends. For these men and women truly walk the “Thin Blue Line.”
Amen.
