A PRAYER FOR OUR NATION AND THE PEOPLE

Delivered by

Reverend Samuel Langdon, 1787

 

"Preserve your government with the utmost attention and solicitude, for it is the remarkable gift of heaven. From year to year be careful in the choice of your representatives and all the higher powers of government.

"Fix your eyes upon men of good understanding and known honesty; men of knowledge, improved by experience; men who fear God and hate covetousness; who love truth and righteousness, and sincerely wish the public welfare.

"Beware of such as are cunning rather than wise; who prefer their own interest to everything; whose judgment is partial or fickle, and whom you would not willingly trust with your own private interests.

"When meetings are called for the choice of your rulers, do not carelessly neglect them or give your votes with indifference ... but act with serious deliberation and judgment, as in a most important matter, and let the faithful of the land serve you.

"Let not men openly irreligious and immoral become your legislators; for how can you expect good laws to be made by men who have no fear of God ... and who boldly trample on the authority of his commands?... If the legislative body is corrupt, you will soon have bad men for counselors, corrupt judges, unqualified justices, and officers in every department who will dishonor their stations...."

"Therefore be always on your guard against parties and the methods [of] unworthy men, and let distinguished merit always determine your vote. And when all places in government are filled with the best men you can find, behave yourselves as good subjects; obey the laws, [be] cheerfully subject to such taxation as the necessities of the public call for. Give tribute to whom tribute is due, custom to whom custom, fear to whom fear, and honor to whom honor [is due] as the gospel commands you.

"Never give countenance to turbulent men, who wish to distinguish themselves and rise to power by forming combinations and exciting insurrections against government. For this can never be the right way to redress real grievances...."

"I call upon you also to support schools in all your towns, that the rising generation may not grow up in ignorance.... It is a debt you owe to your children and that God to whom they belong...."

"I call upon you to preserve the knowledge of God in the land and attend to the revelation written to us from heaven.

"If you neglect or renounce that religion taught and commanded in holy scriptures, think no more of freedom, peace, and happiness...."

"May the general government of these United States , when established appear to be the best which the nations have yet known, and be exalted by uncorrupted religion and morals! And may the everlasting gospel diffuse its Heavenly light and spread Righteousness, Liberty , and Peace through the whole world."

For those who declare that our Constitution is an "old document" or "outdated" or up for interpretation only by scholarly types; the words of Rev. Langdon ring just as true today as they did some 224 years ago.

When polititians with interest in personal power rather than a true interest in the National Welfare arose and began offerring those who had little self ambition a means of support which required simply electing them, the foundations of this nation began to be eroded.

That dependent under class was cultivated and nurtured by those who cared not one bit for the success of the United STates of America, in fact their success depended upon the FAILURE of the USA as the founders intended Her to be.

Whenever, in the history of mankind, the people of a great free nation demand to be cared for rather than to care for themselves, those great free nations fail and fall.

We have seen what happened in those other nations. We KNOW the reasons and we KNOW how to prevent our nation from failing and falling.

Do we have the courage? Are we willing to pledge our lives, our fortunes, our sacred honor as those great men who penned the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution?

Our 'general government of these United States' must return to being the "best which nations have yet known, and be exalted by uncorrupted religion and morals......................"
