The Correctional Officers' Creed

Steel doors clanging loud in the night

We stand strong with our guiding light

Behind the walls where shadows creep

We guard the watch so others can sleep

We are the shield the silent keepers

Walking halls where the dark grows deeper

With courage firm and hearts so true

We stand tall for the red white and blue

Keys in hand and eyes like a hawk

Through these gates we walk the walk

Whispers rise but we don’t flinch

Every step earned inch by inch

We are the shield the silent keepers

Walking halls where the dark grows deeper

With courage firm and hearts so true

We stand tall for the red white and blue

Through the chaos through the fire

We hold steady we don’t tire

Bound by duty bound by creed

We protect we serve we lead

We are the shield the silent keepers

Walking halls where the dark grows deeper

With courage firm and hearts so true

We stand tall for the red white and blue
