country. ,.hich is fighting for its honor,
for its ria.tt and to free its children who
are groanog under the yoke of strang-
ers. Tiler:, oh Lord, impute it not to
me for sin if I take up arms against
Thy creatures. for I do so with a clear
conscience and clean hands .
Out of the depths do I call onto Thee,
on Lord: Online Thine ear Unto Thy
servant and graciously hearken unto my
prayer; Thou art my rock and nip for-
tress. My God in Whom 1 trust. Oh.
forsake me not, take Thyself not far
from me in the hour of peril Hold out
the shield of Thy salvation and hear me
up with Thy right hand. Guard me
from every ill and lead me safely from
the snares of einth that encompass me
