Excerpt from Ceremonies of the Fiftieth Anniversary, 1865-1915, at the American Academy of Music, Philadelphia, April 15, 1915 Eternal God, Sovereign Creator of Nations and of men, we worship Thee. Officers of the army and navy of the United States which in the war of 1861-65 saved the Union, preserved the Constitution and liberated the slaves, we reverently acknowledge that only through Thy counsel and power we endured and conquered. All glory unto Jehovah of the armies mighty in battle. We present our heart's gratitude on this semi-Centenial of the Loyal Legion for Thy preserving mercy by day and by night on land and sea, in sickness and in health, during all these glorious years. Lord of our far flung battle line, we glorify Thee for our Nation's progress, our restored unity, and prosperity, and in this hour when great nations are at war, we thank Thee for peace within our borders, still give us peace. Oh Lord Jesus Christ, Mediational King, Prince of peace, make wars to cease from the end of the earth. Break the bow, cut the spear in sunder and burn the chariots in fire. We humbly supplicate Thee, bless the President of the United States and all in authority, bless our army and navy, deliver us from complications with foreign powers, make our beloved country the arbiter of contending powers and the bringer in of universal and perpetual Peace. We supplicate Thee in the name of the Lord of Peace, who hath taught us to pray: Our Father which art in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name, Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth, as it is in Heaven; Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses as we forgive them which trespass against us, And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever.
