THE AIRMEN‟S PRAYER<br />

If I climb up into Heaven, thou art there.<br />

If I go down to Hell, thou art there also.<br />

If I take the wings <strong>of</strong> the morning and<br />

remain in the uttermost parts <strong>of</strong> the sea,<br />

even there also shall thy hand lead me<br />

and thy right hand shall hold me.<br />

(The Airmen‟s Memorial for the Missing at Runnymede)<br />
