Memory Verse Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord Psalms 33:12 NASB
1 Kings 3-4 Psalms 5
Among the expected glories of the Constitution, next to the abolition of Slavery was that of Rum. (George Clymer)
I now make it my earnest prayer, that God would have you, and the State over which you preside, in his holy protection, that he would incline the hearts of the Citizens to cultivate a spirit of subordination and obedience to Government, to entertain a brotherly affection and love for one another, for their fellow Citizens of the United States at large, and particularly for their brethren who have served in the Field, and finally, that he would most graciously be pleased to dispose us all, to do Justice, to love mercy, and to demean ourselves with that Charity, humility and pacific temper of mind, which were the Characteristicks of the Divine Author of our blessed Religion, and without an humble imitation of whose example in these things, we can never hope to be a happy Nation. ( Lyman Hall George Washington: circular letter of farewell to the Army, June 8, 1783)
