“we have been enabled to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness..for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed; and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge..” #ThanksgivingProclamation

“..unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech him to pardon our national and other transgressions, to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly..”

“to render our national government a blessing to all the people, by constantly being a Government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed” ❤️ @realDonaldTrump

“..to protect and guide all Sovereigns and Nations (especially such as have shewn kindness unto us) and to bless them with good government, peace, and concord” #ThanksgivingProclamation

“To promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the encrease of science among them and us—and generally to grant unto all Mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as he alone knows to be best.”
