A Marine Prayer
Almighty God, Father of the fatherless, now take me home.
I was what others could not be.
I went where others feared to go and did what others failed to do.
I asked nothing from those who gave nothing, but gave hope, security and freedom to all.
I have seen the face of terror; felt the stinging cold of fear and experienced the warm comfort of Your love and protection through it all.
I have enjoyed the sweet taste of life, comrades, love of country, Your guiding ha nd and word.
I have cried, failed, pained, loved and hoped. I have lived times others would say were best forgotten. But, what we are in life echoes into eternity.
I humbly offer that with Your guidance I have done my duty and lived with the grateful pride of what I am - A United States Marine.
Deep sea and sod for now hold our bodies, but You, O Lord, guard our souls until that final day when all stand before You guilty, and for those who believe, receive the gift of forgiveness and Eternal Life.
Almighty God, Father of Love, through the precious blood of Your Son, Jesus Christ, I pray You now take me home. For You have proven to be "Always Faithful."
Semper Fidelis |

The SBM Website |
|
| Our web site is a work in progress. We have a “new look” and hope you
like it. We have a Bulletin Board where the latest info will be posted (the first thing you
heard in most units was “read the Bulletin Board daily”). The the Subic Bay Marines roster
is now on the web site, check it out. Since we do not publish your street address, or telephone
number, If you see someone you know, and want to contact them, e-mail the Secretary
at dmsavage1@gmail.com and you will be put in touch. If you have any suggestions about the web site,
submit them to the Secretary/Webmaster at dmsavage1@gmail.com for consideration. Remember, if you
don’t have a computer, probably everybody has a local library that can get you online with
www.subicbaymarines.com. Check it out. Sign the Guest Book.
