INDEPENDENCE DAY PRAYER
Leader: Lord, we stand today as our forefathers have stood before
You in times gone by, celebrating our history and reveling in
all the great things that our country has achieved. On this day
we rejoice in the favor You have graciously given us.
All: We thank You for the blessings of liberty, for this
generation for the generations to come.
Leader: Yet as a nation and people we have not always chosen the
Right way. We ask You to forgive us for these times. On this
day we commit ourselves to wholeheartedly honoring and
serving You. With everything that we are, we lay our lives before You. Make us a generous people, a holy nation, a people set aside to love You forever, for the sake of the land
of the brave and free, and the peoples and nations of this
world.
All: We thank You that Your gracious and provident hand
has given us so much.
Leader: Today, we do not presume Your grace for our country. Our
Land is in need of You, our people are in need of You, our
industry and business are in need of You. May we look only
to You this Independence Day, dependent on You. Please
come now by Your glorious Holy Spirit, breathe new life into
the sinews of this nation. May justice flow like rivers, and
righteousness like a never failing stream, until the whole of
our country is covered with Your glory, as the waters cover
the sea.
All: We thank You for our independence, peace and for all
those who have bravely given their lives in the defense of
freedom and justice.
Pastor: We ask all this in the wonderful name of Jesus, who lives and
reigns with You and the Holy Spirit. One God, now and for
all eternity. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
