Before I take the field tonight,

I ask that you protect me during this fight.

I give you thanks,

for the talents you have so graciously blessed upon me.

For giving me the strength of what it takes,

to play this game that I love so deeply.

For watching me from above,

allowing me to have so much fun.

Please keep me safe,

and the others lined up across from me.

Bless all those that give up their time,

to make the show go on.

Bless all those,

Who scream and cheer my name.

May I learn the lessons,

you teach me through this game.

Thank for the chance,

to play for your glory.
