A Rifleman`s Prayer
The Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry (43rd & 52nd)
(Version 1)
Lord Jesus Christ, Who has taught us by Thy Holy Apostle that the powers that be are ordained of God, add we pray Thee, to the old and new fellowship of The Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry the spirit of discipline and self control, that we may ever be brave in danger and patient in suffering, after Thy example, who are with the Father, and the Holy Ghost our God, world without end. Amen.
The Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry (43rd & 52nd)
(Version 2)
Almighty God, our heavenly Father, bless we pray Thee our Regiment. We thank Thee for the good example set by those who have gone before. We praise Thee for the honour and tradition inherited from the Past. We remember with gratitude those who have fallen in the service of the Regiment.
Guide and counsel those in authority with wisdom and understanding. Prosper our work and every worthy enterprise; and may the common ties of loyalty and devotion strengthen our comradeship together. Make us persevering and enable us to show the cheerful infection of a good courage. So in proud thanksgiving may we hand on the good name of our Regiment, the Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry, to those who follow after; and this we ask in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

This we ask through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

O Lord God Almighty, we give Thee most humble thanks for all who have served in The Rifle Brigade and have yielded up their lives for our defence and the freedom of mankind.

courage and dost accept the sacrifice, through Thy Son, our Redeemer Jesus Christ. Amen.
