Movie star Joel McCrea starred as Texas Ranger Jayce Pearson, who used the latest scientific techniques to identify the criminals and his faithful horse, Charcoal, to track them down. The shows were reenactments of actual Texas Ranger cases and were on the NBC radio network. Each week a bit of Ranger history ended the broadcast. There was even a Rangers prayer that was recited at the end of the 50th program. Theme song for show was “The Eyes Of Texas Are Upon You”. The series was produced and directed by Stacy Keach, Sr., and narrator was Tony Barrett. Captain M. T. "Lone Wolf" Gonzaullas, a Ranger for 30 years and who was said to have killed 31 men during his career, served as consultant for the series. |
| Texas Ranger’s Prayer
Capt. Pierre Bernard Hill Chaplin Of The Texas Rangers Oh God, Who’s end is justice, Who’s strength is all our stay. Be near and bless my mission As I go forth today. Let wisdom guide my actions Let courage fill my heart And help me Lord in every hour To do a Rangers part. Protect when danger threatens Sustain when trails are rough. Help me to keep my standard high And smile at each rebuff. When night comes down upon me I pray thee Lord be nigh. Whither on lonely scout Or camped under the Texas sky. Keep me, oh God in life And when my day shall end Forgive my sins and take me in. For Jesus sake. Amen |
