... heroes, all of them. Especially Ramon, because he flew against the Franco-Iraqi reactor--but most of the Americans were military personnel, as well. They were all heroes.

My prayers are offered to our Lord Jesus Christ for these men and women and their families. I also lift up this nation and President George W. Bush. Amen.

Thank you for posting this thread. Because of the beautiful poems and prayers the tears I've been fighting all day finally came.

Ravenstar,
I just sat here and scrolled back through several months of posts trying to remember your FReeper name. I remember posting to you about my husband's dream of piloting the Shuttle someday, inside of a thread about the last nighttime launch--the Atlantis, maybe?.

I just wanted you to know how sorry I am for you and everyone else at the Cape and in Houston. I've been thinking about you and saying some prayers for you and your coworkers.

God bless you and the NASA family in the upcoming days.

To the brothers in uniform I lost today. May God hold you. You stand relieved...we have the watch.



Lord, guard and guide the men who fly
Through the great spaces of the sky;
Be with them traversing the air
In darkening storms or sunshine fair.

Thou who dost keep with tender might
The balanced birds in all their flight,
Thou of the tempered winds, be near,
That, having Thee, they know no fear.

Control their minds with instinct fit
What time, adventuring, they quit
The firm security of land;
Grant steadfast eye and skillful hand.

Aloft in solitudes of space,
Uphold them with Thy saving grace.
O God, protect the men who fly
Thru lonely ways beneath the sky. Amen.

Taps:

Day is done,
gone the sun,
from the lakes
from the hills
from the sky,
all is well,
safely, rest,
God is near.

Fading light,
Dims the sight,
And a star gems the sky
Gleaming bright,
From afar,
Drawing, near,
Falls the night.

Thanks and praise,
For our days,
Neath the sun
Neath the stars
Neath the sky,
As we go,
This, we, know,
God is near.

Bless them all.

A poem to be read and re-read, thank you, saving it.

Pray for our President.

Steel tried
By trial of fire
Blast furnaces of hell
Only make it stronger
