Corps Grace

Our Heavenly Father,
You are the Great Engineer of the Universe;
You give us this food, to strengthen us in your service:
You give us the fellowship of Sappers, amongst friendships built up over years:
You give us that strong bridge with the past, our traditions as
Royal Australian Engineers:
We give you Thanks, Our Lord.
Amen.

Corps Prayer

Almighty God, who in person of Jesus Christ, you bridge the gap between yourself and all people, help us to follow his life of service and sacrifice. Give to us members of the Royal Australian Engineers, the skills and strength of will to perform our tasks well in peace and war. Guide us to work with you to build a world that is free and secure, through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.

Corps March - Wings

Wings to bear me over mountain and vale away;
Wings to bathe my spirit in morning's summy ray.
Wings that I may hover at morn above the sea;
Wings through life to bear me, the death triumphantly.

Wings like youth's fleet moments which swiftly o'er me passed;
Wings like my early visions, to bright, to fair to last.
Wings that I might recall them, the loved, the lost, the dead;
Wings that I might fly after the past, long vanished.

Wings to lift me upward, scaring the Eagle flight;
Wings to waft me heavenward to bask in realms of light.
Wings to be more wearied, lulled in eternal rest;
Wings to be sweetly folded where Faith and Love are blessed.
