Almighty God, who has given us this good land for our heritage, we humbly beseech Thee that we may always prove ourselves a people mindful of Thy favor and glad to do Thy will. Bless our land with honorable industry, sound learning, and pure manners. Save us from vio- lence, discord, and confusion, from pride and arrogancy, and from every evil way. Defend our liberties, and fashion into one united people the multitudes brought hither out of many kindreds and tongues. Endue with the spirit of wisdom those to whom in Thy Name we entrust the au- thority of government, that there may be justice and peace at home, and that, through obedi- ence to Thy law, we may show forth Thy praise among the nations of the earth. In the time of prosperity, fill our hearts with thankfulness, and in the day of trouble, suffer not our trust in Thee to fail, all which we ask through our Lord. Amen. OUR FAITH IN GOD WE TRUST THE AMERICAN CREED by William Tyler Page Accepted by House of Representatives April 3rd, 1918 l believe in the United States of America as a government of the people, by the peo- ple, for the people, whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed, a democracy in a republic, a sovereign Na- tion of many sovereign States, a perfect Union, one and inseparable, established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes. I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it, to support its Constitu- tion, to obey its laws, to respect its Flag, and to defend it against all enemies.
