AMERICA has been a refuge for the oppressed throughout her history.
Because of this unique land, the opportunity to gain wealth has been given to the impoverished, the opportunity to live free has been extended to the enslaved, the opportunity to know truth has been bestowed upon those in spiritual bondage.
May we who are privileged to be citizens of this incomparable land always value the treasure we possess. May we firmly grasp our hold on truth and freedom, so these precious gifts cannot slip away from us through our carelessness or wrested from us by the iron hand of tyranny.
May we recognize as did our founders that the things we cherish most
about AMERICA are those blessings that come to us from the hand of the
GOD at whose feet this land was placed at its inception, and may we
invite the CHRIST who died to make us free to reign here--in our nation
and in our hearts--as the great and glorious "WONDERFUL COUNSELOR,
MIGHTY GOD, EVERLASTING FATHER, PRINCE OF PEACE." Isaiah 9:6
