WE GIVE THEE THANKS In the name of the living, and of the dead, And of those unborn Lord, bless the bread Of brotherhood that now we break In gratitude for Thy sweet sake. In the name of the living we thank Thee, Lord, For deliverance from flame and sword ; For loved ones spared ; for the task well done ; For the battle fought and the victory won. In the name of the dead locked deep in sleep Under alien earth give us strength to keep Untarnished their dear-bought legacy, The brave, bright armor of liberty. And for those unborn Lord, we lift a prayer For a wiser world where we all may share A lasting amity with men. .We thank Thee, Lord, for peace. Amen. Large Number Attend Meet Of Methodists Dr. H. N.
