A New Dream

If there is anything I'd like to see, America - it is your own faith restored - the faith you forgot.

A world without you is an unfamiliar world indeed.

There is no perfect undertaking of Country upon the earth - which is why we are all called to be one family of nations.

The last great age of War has exacted from all our nations a great and terrible toll indeed. You have stagnated. And now you are in danger of retrograding in your ages in time.

But sufficient for our day is the evil that we all must face - as nations dreaming together this time - so this is for you a test of your own commitment to God and Country as well, America.

Remember, you are still a young nation but as a Republic - in this present time, upon our needful world, under this season of heaven - you are the eldest of all.

Therefore, you must always take care in your youth that you may advance safely in age and maturity but as a particular undertaking of Country, you must also dare to dream and dream greatest of all.

So let us dream again today, America, a new dream of peace.

Happy Birthday, Old Glory.

Salutation #27



(A Prayer for America)

For sundry times -

O LORD GOD
and Creator of us all,
look with kindness on the one people
of the United States of America,
and remember that orphaned nation,
O LORD, and Father of the fatherless,
and the one Republic that You raised
to stand forever in her defense.

Favor her, O God,
abide with her,
be both her strength
and her stronghold;
a refuge from the darkness;
a sword against deception;
and a shield against War.

Bless all her servants, civil and religious -
Strengthen them, O LORD,
and share with them Thy special grace,
to enable them to serve - freely and with joy -
Thy noble cause of Country.

Reawaken in her Thy Spirit, O LORD
and the remembrance of Thy peace.

AMEN.

During election seasons -

O LORD GOD and Creator of us all,
look with kindness on the one people
of the United States of America,
and remember that orphaned nation,
O LORD, and Father of the fatherless,
and the one Republic that You raised
to stand forever in her defense.

Favor her, O God,
abide with her
and watch over her,
most especially during
these elections.

Be both her strength
and her stronghold;
a refuge from the darkness;
a sword against deception;
and a shield against War.

Bless all her servants, civil and religious -
most especially those candidates You picked out
and have placed in the forum of the people.
Strengthen them, O LORD,
and share with them Thy special grace,
to enable them be humble in victory
and magnanimous in defeat.

Reawaken in her Thy Spirit, O LORD
and the remembrance of Thy peace.

AMEN.

If you feel a certain kinship with the generation who won for us the peace we have kept since WWII - that is because that peace is at stake again in our times.
