LBW #569, "God Bless Our Native Land"
Devotion
A hymn for personal reflection:
God bless our native land;
Firm may it ever stand Through storm and night.
When the wild tempests rave, Ruler of wind and wave,
Do thou our country save By thy great might.
So shall our prayers arise To God above the skies;
On whom we wait.
Thou who are ever nigh, Guarding with watchful eye,
To thee aloud we cry: God save the state!
Prayer
God of our fathers and mothers, we praise and thank you for this good land, the freedom to worship without fear, and the gift of our family and friends. Help is to celebrate our ultimate freedom in Jesus Christ now and forever. Amen
