Opening Hymn “God of Our Fathers”
God of our fathers whose Almighty hand leads forth in beauty all the starry band
Of shining worlds in splendor through the skies our grateful songs before Thy throne arise
Thy love divine hath led us past in this free land by Thee our lot is cast
Be Thou our Ruler guardian guide and stay thy word our law Thy paths our chosen way
From war's alarm and deadly pestilence be Thy strong arm our ever sure defense
Thy true religion in our hearts increase thy bounteous goodness nourish us in peace
Refresh Thy people on their toil some way lead us from night to never ending days
Fill all our lives with love and grace divine and glory laud and praise be ever Thine
God of our fathers God of our fathers

Closing Hymn “Mansions of the Lord”
To fallen soldiers let us sing where no rockets fly nor bullets wing
Our broken brothers let us bring to the Mansions of the Lord
No more bleeding, no more fight no prayers pleading through the night
Just divine embrace, eternal light to the Mansions of the Lord
Where no mothers cry and no children weep
We will stand and guard though the angels sleep
Through the ages safely keep
The Mansions of the Lord
