“Meditation” Flor Peeters
Psalm 103
Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name!
Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits, who forgives all your iniquity, who heals all your diseases,
Who redeems your life from the pit, who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy, who satisfies you with good so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him;
As far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us.
All: As a father shows compassion to his children, so the Lord shows compassion to those who fear him.

"By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” - John 13:35
Our God
Water You turned into wine, Opened the eyes of the blind
There's no one like You, None like You
Into the darkness You shine, Out of the ashes we rise
There's no one like You, None like You
Our God is greater, Our God is stronger
God You are higher than any other
Our God is healer, Awesome in power our God our God
Into the darkness You shine, Out of the ashes we rise
There's no one like You, None like You
Our God is greater, Our God is stronger
God You are higher than any other
Our God is healer, Awesome in power our God our God
And if our God is for us Then who could ever stop us
And if our God is with us Then what could stand against
And if our God is for us Then who could ever stop us
And if our God is with us Then what could stand against
(Then) what could stand against
Our God is greater, Our God is stronger
God You are higher than any other
Our God is healer, Awesome in power our God our God

Cadet Prayer
O God, our Father, Thou Searcher of human hearts, help us to draw near to thee in sincerity and truth. May our religion be filled with gladness and may our worship of thee be natural.
Strengthen and increase our admiration for honest dealing and clean thinking, and suffer not our hatred of hypocrisy and pretence ever to diminish. Encourage us in our endeavor to live above the common level of life. Make us to choose the harder right instead of the easier wrong, and never to be content with a half-truth when the whole can be won.
Endow us with courage that is born of loyalty to all that is noble and worthy, that scorns to compromise with vice and injustice and knows no fear when truth and right are in jeopardy.
Guard us against flippancy and irreverence in the sacred things of life. Grant us new ties of friendship and new opportunities of service. Kindle our hearts in fellowship with those of a cheerful countenance, and soften our hearts with sympathy for those who sorrow and suffer.
Help us to maintain the honor of the Corps untarnished and unsullied and to show forth in our lives the ideals of West Point in doing our duty to Thee and to our Country.
All of which we ask in the name of the Great Friend and Master of all (Jesus Christ, our Lord). Amen.
Proverbs 4:1-4ESV
Ephesians 6:1-4ESV
"Men of a Certain Age"
CH (COL) David Bowlus, COL Diana Loucks
Men of a certain age are weary
Everything rolls along
Nothing has changed for many years
Now it's still the same old song
Apathy for your anger
Compromise replaced your rage
Things you once stood for now you stay seated
Men of a certain age
Men of a certain age are grumpy
Nothing has turned out right
All of those things you hoped to accomplish
Seem to be set aside
Where is that great adventure
How can I turn the page
Rub it all out and start it over
Men of a certain age
But who told you to quit who said to step down
Who said to stop running
Who said that time had been called on your day
Who said the anointing had been taken away
The battle is won the kingdom has come
It's time to start running
So grab that baton and get back in the race
Men of a certain age
Men of a certain age are heroes
At least in their children's eyes
Standing for what they once believed in
No hint of compromise
Running the race with patience
Until their final day
Faithful in every word and deed
You men of a certain age
Malachi 4:1-6ESV
"The Heart of a Father"
CH (COL) David Bowlus
Praise God from whom all blessings flow;
Praise Him all creatures here below;
Praise Him above, ye heavenly host: Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
Our fathers’ God, to Thee, Author of liberty, to Thee we sing:
Long may our land be bright with freedom’s holy light;
Protect us by Thy might – great God, our King.
#389 "Happy the Home When God Is There"
The LORD bless you and keep you. - Numbers 6:24
