"DID YOU KNOW ?" A SEABEE Prayer in Navy Bible?

From one of "Stormin's" shipmates:

Today is my birthday, and my wife presented me with a book titled, The Sailor's Bible. I had never seen this before, and it contains many passages and messages pertaining to the Navy.

Even though I am sure you probably have head this before, since I know you are the expert and curator of anything to do with the Seabees, I just wanted to pass along this message that was in this Sailor's Bible. ( Thanks for the buildup Dave, but "Stormin' " is no expert! )

It is called the Seabees' Hymn written by: R.J. Dietrich (1960),

LORD, STAND BESIDE THE MEN WHO BUILD,
AND GIVE THEM COURAGE, STRENGTH, AND SKILL.
O' GRANT THEM PEACE OF HEART AND MIND,
AND COMFORT LOVED ONES LEFT BEHIND.
LORD, HEAR OUR PRAYERS FOR ALL SEABEES,
WHERE'ER THEY BE ON LAND OR SEA.

I thought I would share this with you or anyone else who has not heard of it.
