AN EAGLE SCOUT’S PRAYER

Oh Lord,

grant that I may possess

the will and the strength

to live up to my solemn obligations:

To do my duty

to God and my country;

To serve my community;

To all mankind be trustworthy,

friendly, courteous, kind,

obedient, cheerful, thrifty,

brave, clean, and reverent;

To help others

at all times,

especially those

who are weak or in need;

To assist my fellow Scouts

along the Eagle Trail,

providing leadership and inspiration

that they may also experience

the fulfilling rewards of Scouting;

To keep myself

physically strong,

mentally awake,

and morally straight

in every undertaking of my daily life;

To respect

our wildlife and environment;

To be prepared,

and to do my best in every endeavor;

Never to forget

that I am an Eagle Scout;

and –

Always to remember

that I represent the ideals

of the highest achievement in Scouting –

a symbol of good character and citizenship,

and of wholesome worth and honor.

Amen
