"Oh. merciful and gracious Father,
we seek Thy presence in this vast as
sembly of Thy people and humbly ask
,rhv guidance in the councils of the
la,ders of Thy people. Thou rulest in
the desttnies of nations. Thou art en-
-hroned in the hearts of Thy worship
ners. and we serve Thee best whose
ives are devoted to the cause of the
lust the right and the true, who give
ourselves consciously in Thy name to
the cause of liberty and of justice.
"Oh. do Thou inspire those who are
gathered here that they may deliberate
With each other in the spirit of wisdom
ana understanding, in the spirit of
knowledge and in the spirit of counsel,
SO that through their councils our peo-
ple may go from strength to strength
and our land may remain what Thou
hast destined it to be, the foundation
Of human right and human liberty. Oh,
inspire US as Thou didst the fathers of
our country, with a patriotism pure
and unselfish, and teach US that we
serve Thee in serving the common
wealth and in safeguarding those liber-
ties which Thou hast spread abroad.
Let not the glory of this, our day, be
less than that of our great past, and
inspire every one of Thy children, for
the least even unto the greatest, with
the love and zeal for the imperishable
treasures which Thou hast entrusted
10 the keeping of our land for the well
being of all mankind. AS in its great
past this country has been the refuge
and the asylum of all Thy children,
without regard to creed, or cline, or
race or conditions, so do Thou inspire
us with a love of Thy greatest good,
religious freedom and liberty, that it
still may be the hope and refuge of
mankind.
oh, may the ark of freedoms foun-
dation not be held by the worship of
an idol of material things, to the detri-
ment and hurt of those treasures
which alone can inspire the love of
Thee and of liberty, and safeguard our
country. Let it sail on, that it may
reach the haven which Thou hast des-
tined for it and for mankind, the hav-
en- of love of law and liberty. And
thus. oh God, do Thou guide those
who are here gathered in Thy service
and in the service of the people. May
Thy bounty, Oh Lord our God, come
upon us. Establish Thou the work of
our hands upon us, yea, the work of
our hands establish Thou to-day.
Amen"
