JAIL OFFICER’S PRAYER

Lord, I ask you to be with me in every step of the way
as I face the challenges of my work each day;
Grant me compassion when I share my selfless dedication
to inmates passing through difficult times under detention.

Guide me as I render humane safekeeping and development
among the innocent and lawless under our jail management;
Keep me in upholding justice without reservation
to show my commitment and fervent service to our beloved nation.

When duty calls for danger, my safety to you I surrender,
To give me strength and courage for trials to weather;
When my shift is over maintaining public safety and order
Thankful I will always be to You, my Savior and Protector.

Amen.
