I feel so blessed to have recently been included in this powerful place of prayer. Thank you OhioWfan, and all of you who have welcomed me to pray with you for our President, his family and our nation. I haven't been here for 2000 days, but I am grateful for all you faithful who have.

Dear Heavenly Father, bless this land and our President and bless this group who comes to You in prayer and supplication. We live to give You the glory and await with eagerness the day that Your truth will been seen by every eye. Amen.

This prayer and this day remind me of this famous hymn - and it is especially for ohioWfan and all of you with family in our military. Godspeed to each of our brave patriots fighting to keep us free.

The Battle Hymn of the Republic
Julia Ward Howe

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord
He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored,
He has loosed the fateful lightening of His terrible swift sword
His truth is marching on.

Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.

I have seen Him in the watch-fires of a hundred circling camps
They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps
I can read His righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps
His day is marching on.

Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.

He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat
He is sifting out the hearts of men before His judgment-seat
Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer Him! be jubilant, my feet!
Our God is marching on.

Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.

In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea,
With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me:
As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free,
While God is marching on.

Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.

He is coming like the glory of the morning on the wave, He is wisdom to the mighty, he is honor to the brave, so the world shall be His footstool, and the soul of wrong His slave.

Our God is marching on.

Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
Glory! Glory! Hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.
