A Prayer for Independence Day
Almighty God, you rule all the peoples of the earth.
Inspire the minds of all women and men
to whom you have committed the responsibility
of government and leadership
in the nations of the world.
Give to them the vision of truth and justice,
that by their counsel all nations and peoples may work together.
Give to the people of our country
zeal for justice and strength of forbearance,
that we may use our liberty in accordance with your gracious will.
Forgive our shortcomings as a nation;
purify our hearts to see and love the truth.
We pray all these things through Jesus Christ. Amen.
— ANDY LANGFORD, U.S.A., 20TH CENT.
