Prayer for the Fourth of July
God, source of all freedom,
this day is bright with the memory
of those that declared that life and liberty
are your gifts to every human being.
Help us to continue the good work that began long ago.
Make our vision clear and our will strong;
that only in human solidarity will we find liberty,
and justice only in the honor that belongs
to every life on earth.
Turn our hearts towards the family of nations:
to understand the ways of others,
to offer friendship,
and to find safety in the common good for all.
We ask this through Christ our Lord, Amen.
