we give you thanks for all the achievements we celebrate this evening,
and we pray for your blessing on the whole Sea Cadet Corps
and especially on this unit.
Eternal Lord God,
who alone rules the raging of the sea,
we pray that you would graciously prosper your servant, Elizabeth our Queen,
and protect all who go down to the sea in ships,
especially those who defend our coasts and waters.
Help us so to accept and trust the Lord Jesus Christ as our Captain
on our earthly voyage, in this brief mortal life,
that you might bring us at last to the rest and safety of your everlasting haven.
And the peace of God which passes all understanding,
keep our hearts and minds in the knowledge and love of God,
and of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord,
and the blessing of God Almighty, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit,
be with us, and all whom we love and pray for,
now and always. Amen.
