<P> The poem is parodied in the Half Man Half Biscuit song "Footprints", off the 1993 album This Leaden Pall . In the song, the Lord explains the fact that there is only one set of footprints this way: "During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, that must have been when I was appearing on...Junior Kick Start!" </P> <P> The poem was also used in the memorial service for Air France Flight 447 on 3 June 2009 . </P>
