WAYNE'S
TREATY OF GREENVILLE, AUG. 3, 1895.
PRAYER BY REV. JOHN POYNTZ TYLER.
O God, who art the blessed Potentate,
the King of kings
and the Lord of lords, the Almighty
Ruler of nations, we adore
and magnify Thy glorious name for all
the great things which
Thou hast done for us. We render Thee
thanks for the goodly
heritage which Thou hast given unto us,
for the civil and relig-
ious privileges which we enjoy, and for
the multiplied manifes-
tations of Thy favor towards us. We
thank Thee for this fair
land which Thou hast given and preserved
to us. Grant that we
may show our thankfulness for these Thy
mercies by living in
reverence of Thy almighty power and
dominion, in humble re-
liance on Thy goodness and mercy, and in
whole obedience to
Thy righteous laws. Preserve, we beseech
Thee, to our coun-
try the blessings of peace; restore them
to nations deprived
of them, and secure them to all the
places of the earth. May
the kingdom of the Prince of Peace come
and reign in the hearts
and lives of men. We implore Thy
blessing on all in legislative,
judicial and executive authority, that
they may have grace, wis-
dom and understanding so to discharge
their duties as most ef-
fectually to promote Thy glory, the
interest of true religion and
virtue, and the peace, good order and
welfare of this state and
