Uses: Patriotic, Concert Scripture: Psalm 107:23-26 Profoundly moving, this tribute to the men and women in the armed forces is framed as a petition for safety in the air and on land and sea. Using texts from several sources, the arranger recognizes all who serve with this prayer of gratitude. Crafted around the MELITA hymntune, this concept is a reverent and refreshing change from other medleys that incorporate the official military songs. Trumpet part included.
