Let freemen’s hearts grow bolder;
Let freedom’s banner fly
Where God’s four winds unfold her
To God’s uncharted sky.
His Word and not another’s
Is pledged to liberty;
His hand hath made men brothers,
His truth shall make men free.
Where freedom’s flag is flying
In lands across the sea
On Thee we are relying,
Great God, we count on Thee!
For right is right forever,
Though men have crowned the wrong,
And truth shall perish never—
Great God, how long? how long?
When our brave lads are dying
In lands across the sea,
On Thee we are relying,
Great God, they die for Thee!
And if we lay them sleeping
In lands beyond the sea,
God, have them in Thy keeping—
We leave them there with Thee.

Psa 5:3 Each morning you listen to my prayer, as I bring my requests to you and wait for your reply.
Thank you for this new day. Please help all your people who are in trouble or oppressed or in pain, or in any need.
Weeping may endure the night but Joy surely does come in the morning.
Psa 46:4 There is a river--its streams delight the city of God, the holy dwelling place of the Most High.
Psa 46:5 God is within her; she will not be toppled. God will help her when the morning dawns.
Psa 46:6 Nations rage, kingdoms topple; the earth melts when He lifts His voice.
Psa 46:7 The LORD of Hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our stronghold. Selah
Lord we aren't confused to think that you approve of this nation with all the sin within her borders, but Lord we know you love your people here. Please help us defeat the enemy of your Word and let your Love take captive this nation and bring Salvation and healing.
Joh 9:4 As long as it is day, we must do what the one who sent me wants me to do. When night comes, no one can work.
Expose works of darkness and let your light and love enter. We depend completely on your power and your Spirit and your Word. Help us to stand ready, and go when we should go and work when we should work and speak when we should speak, and pray and praise and stand.
In Jesus' mighty Name, that's above all names......
